Below you'll find the slide deck from my most recent VMUG session, "Upgrading to vSphere 6 - Updated", from the North Central WIVMUG Super VMUG meeting on 11/03 at UW Eau Claire.This session was updated to include information about the VCSA migration tool.
I appreciate all of the feedback and questions I receive about my sessions. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions here or on Twitter (@ExploreVM).
As an aside, I've had some personal matters come up lately. This has taken up a lot of my free time which would have been dedicated to blogging & podcasting. I will be writing on this subject shortly, as well as getting back to creating more content soon! I'm also migrating ExploreVM.com away from Blogger to another platform, and have a new logo and stickers created! Ask me for a sticker next time you see me at a VMUG event!

Title
Simplifying Sys Admin’s Day with vRealize (8325)
Abstract
Small/Medium Business (SMB) Administrators face numerous
challenges in their day to day operations. What if some of the workload around
monitoring, planning, compliance, and resource requests could not only be
simplified, but automated as well? This introduction to vRealize Operations
Manager (vROPs) & vRealize Automation (vRA) will demonstrate practical
applications for use in the SMB environment.
Attendees will gain a better understanding of the reporting and
capabilities of vROPs, coupled with the automation abilities of vRA through demonstrations.
The benefit of real world implementations, such as time & costs savings,
will also be provided through customer testimonials. Although this session will
have a focus on SMB environments, Enterprise admins will find value in this
session as well as the examples will be easily relatable to challenges faced in
large scale environments.
