About Robroy

I'm originally from Santa Cruz and have been consulting since 1997.

In 1999, I joined the Santa Cruz Operation engineering group. After four years there, I spent three years in the VMware, Inc. engineering group.

While in VMware Engineering I took a VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 class and earned this certificate (click on it for a better view).  Kirk Lacewell, the VMware Technical Trainer, made the class very enjoyable and really knows a lot about ESX!

I also earned a VMware ESX Server 2.5 certificate.  ESX 2.x now seems like the Stone Age of server virtualization!

I'm familiar with Windows Server operating systems and have a Microsoft MCP certificate for Windows NT Server 4.0.

About this Server

This server's an early Sun Blade 100 (UltraSPARC IIe) running OpenBSD/sparc64 4.5. It has 896 Megabytes of Micron ECC RAM (one 128MB DIMM and three 256MB DIMMs) and a Seagate ST380021A hard disk. Its onboard Sun ERI NIC goes to my ISP's router and its Sun Cassini gigabit NIC goes to my DMZ. Its CGI scripts are written in Tcl and executed in a chroot environment.
