Referring to Eric posted about “Show your support for VMware“, I’m 54 supporters of VMware. Yes! I support VMware!

To show your support for VMware, you can go to http://twibbon.com/join/VMware, enter your Twitter username & password and click “Support VMware now!”

Look carefully at the images show as above! I’m sure you will notice Google search engine result could not find “Buy VMware” keyword on pages from Malaysia(Ignore Sponsored Links). This is NOT for fun which actually I found on Malaysia VMware sitemeter report. Does Google search engine stupid or intelligence? Google search understand English? What do you think? Probably this article will show on top on Google search result later. Yeah! SEO expert here …..

Anyway other keywords such as “Buy VMware ESX” and “Buy VMware Workstation” either from google.com or google.com.my worked perfectly which it will show VMware Store URL: http://www.vmware.com/vmwarestore/.

Again, if you are looking for buying anything from VMware Malaysia you can check with VMware Malaysia.

Why VMware Fusion is on top keyword? Does VMware Fusion have more users than VMware ESX? I would assume high traffic for VMware Fusion keyword compare to VMware ESX.

Google evil? What do you think?

Here’s an alternative solution for you: a Bash script to run on your ESX Server.

Sample screen shot:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
VMWARE ESX Management Tool Script
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Author : http://malaysiavm.com/blog
Version : 1.00.20081107.14.31
Supported ESX Version : 2.5 – 3.5
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

0. VM Informations
1. Register VM
2. Unregister VM
3. Check VM Status
4. Power ON VM
5. Power OFF VM
6. Suspend VM
E. Exit

Choice:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Known Issue:
1) DO NOT support VM with space in the middle, ex: “MY VM Server”. It will show as 3 blank VM servers, and none of these 3 are working.

Note:
1) This script need to execute as ROOT on your ESX Server (DO NOT Support 3.0i and 3.5i).

2) There is absolutely no guarantee from us and use at your own risk!
