you just always seem to pick fights with me and it's exhausting. You always presume the worse. I'm sorry your perfect, I aim to be real and in-perfect.

But what I've tried to do is be more humbled that some people do think they are perfect, so I accept this fact. But your right I don't know everything, nor do I want too, because when you know everything, your ego is larger than life and what's the fun in that?

Trev, she doesn't pick fights with you man. In fact, most people on here are looking after you. We know of the learning disability you have, perhaps proof-reading your posts before hitting the publish button will help? If you've been caught out to be factually incorrect, it's best to admit it than to fluff your way around - this never works out well and in long run might be debilitating to your career. Please know no one, and I can vouch for Katherine, is trying to undermine your ability/character. If you're going to say LACP and storage in the same breath, you will get flamed, simple as that, with or without a disability.

Does anyone know where you can replay the Keynote from VMworld EU?

I couldn't find anywhere they mentioned a release date either. None the less, I just rebuilt my lab last weekend and starting writing a blogpost about deploying VCSA for 6.0u2 and some extra features... I don't even remember seeing the Beta pop up on our vExpert forums.

My head hurts reading this. What were we talking about again?

Oh yeah, that's right vSphere 6.5. So glad they are putting VUM into the VCSA. Overall, it looks great

Will the VCSA version of VUM still require an external MSSQL database?

Alright, back on track...

I must have missed it, what is the estimated release date for 6.5? I'm ready to blow up the home lab and go vSphere 6.5 with VUM on VCSA and Windows Server 2016 DCs.

Not sure of an exact date. It's supposed to be Q4 2016

I just got updated to 6.0U2 from 5.5, so I'll be holding off on 6.5 for at least 12 months

I just might bite on the vCSA finally.

Legally VMware has to release the same quarter it was announced .. So it'll have to be Q4 latest.

There are some "interesting" limitation with 6.5. I would hold off on upgrading for a bit.
