London VMware Users Group (VMUG) – February 2011

Just a quick reminder to all of you UK based VM TechHeads out there that the London VMware Users Group is on Thursday 10th February 2011.  If you want to register to attend or are interested in finding out more check out this link through to the London VMUG site.  Below is an outline on what you can expect, notice there is a special appearance by that crazy and all round nice Dutch guy Gabe van Zanten who will be speaking on ‘Cheap Disaster Recovery using PowerShell scripts’. Also Alan Renouf will be holding his usual PowerCLI session which is also well worth attending. All this combined with the other interesting presentations it should prove to be a good VMUG indeed!
