Monthly UCS podcast using Google spaces

[jimstehlik]

Hello All,

At a recent PowerTool session, our guest speaker Eric Williams, mentioned that there was a monthly or so podcast on various UCS related topics.  I am interested in finding out the URL or how to attend.  Any and all information will be appreciated.  I had thought the information would be posted here, but I can't seem to locate it. 

Thank you,

Jim

There's no UCS Podcasts at this point.  We are taking the Google + Hangout on Air approach.  We are now going to be announcing new Hangout on Air's here at the UCS Communities website here.  We had a couple of glitches that we've worked out, and are going announce them here going forward.  Feel free to check out the links to the previous three UCS Tech Talks posted here in the documents section.

What topics are of interest to you guys?  We have a couple of ideas for the next two sessions, but we are always soliciting your feedback on what YOU, the community, wants to hear about!

Eric,

I hope no disrepect was taken, just couldn't find out more after that one session you were presented. 

Topics of interest:

• PowerTool/PowerShell tips and tricks.
• Migration to using UCS Central.
• Best practices in design, set-up, expansion, and day-to-day.
• In my environment, I have mixed configurations (ESX hosts with several stand-alone blades).  So maybe something along the lines of how to best utilize UCS to accomdate.  Even along the lines of how to best design your environment for this situation to make firmware upgrades as easy as possible.

Thank you again,

Jim
