How to forcefully kill a virtual machine in VMware ESX

April 22nd, 2009 No comments

I had an error message come up about a VM:

The redolog of xxxxx.xx.vmdk has been detected to be corrupt. The virtual machine needs to be powered on. If the problem still persists, you need to discard the redolog.

I couldn’t power off the VM and it was stuck in an endless loop prompting me to click okay.

Live Messenger for iPhone out soon?

April 9th, 2009 No comments

Recently a lot of instant messaging apps have been released by the official companies. First there was skype. Now yahoo messenger.

Unfortunately no one I know uses those and all of them use msn / live messenger. I really hope Microsoft is working on it as the current messenger clients aren’t very good.

The yahoo messenger app is VERY well presented and works well. Just need an identical sort of app from Microsoft now and I will be happy.

What’s your thoughts?
