Tabula Rosa Systems Blog Of 7/11/2019 VM Automation





From whatis.com
VM automation 
VM automation is the ability for a virtual machine (VM) to perform basic functions and optimize performance on its own or with minimal manual input. An important goal of VM automation is to minimize human errors and reduce the amount of time it takes for information technology administrators to manage a large, logical infrastructure.
VM automation tools can help with the completion of routine tasks, as well as the migration and placement of VMs. Placement is the process of determining where each virtual machine will operate and who will be its host. Migration involves balancing data and processing loads by moving VMs to optimize the use of host memory and processing power.
VM automation has many benefits but it's not suited to every workload or environment. While it works well for the creation and management of large numbers of VMs but for smaller organizations, the work and cost of tools required to implement VM automation can be detrimental to the cost-efficiency of the VMs themselves in a small environment. Tools built specifically for the automating virtual machine management at the enterprise level include VMWare vSphere PowerCLI and the VMWare vRealize Suite.
VM automation levels
The automation level for a virtual machine can be changed in the settings of software such as vSphere and levels of automation can be customized within different VMs. Possible levels include:
  • Manual - The system makes recommendations but does not implement them until the user manually makes the changes.
  • Fully automated - The system immediately implements changes.
  • Partially automated - The system makes some changes such as placement, or which host a virtual machine is nested within, but only suggests others, such as migration, or how various VMs are moved around in order to load balance a larger network.
  • Disabled - The system does not suggest or change anything.

Tabula Rosa Systems Blog - International Kissing Day




Here's why we call the open-mouth smooch a 'French kiss'
By Leah Asmelash and Nadeem Muaddi, CNN
 (CNN)Every great love story culminates with a kiss.
It typically comes toward the end, with a desire that's been building over the course of an hour and some odd minutes. We hold our collective breath as the couple before us gaze into each other's eyes (you know, the look) and begin to lean into a -- sometimes awkward or sloppy but always heartwarming -- French kiss.
But why are these specific kisses labeled French? In honor of International Kissing Day, we decided to look into the matter. Here's what we learned:

French kissing became popular after WWI

The term "French kiss" entered the English vernacular in 1923, Sheril Kirshenbaum writes in her book "The Science of Kissing." 

No one really knows the exact reason why we use the term, but it was likely adopted by Americans who traveled to France and kissed French women, who were more comfortable with a bit of tongue action, says Kirshenbaum.

Naturally, the term "French kiss" developed.
Still, it took a while for the term -- and even the practice -- to catch on in the United States.
It wasn't until after World War II that Americans felt comfortable enough to French kiss each other, says Kirshenbaum. She credits American servicemen who served in Europe with bringing the kissing style home.
Remember that iconic photo of a US sailor kissing a woman in Times Square? Exactly.

It's no big deal in France

Of course, it wasn't called a "French kiss" in France. It was just a kiss.
The French didn't even have a word for the style of kissing until 2014, when the Petit Robert dictionary added a new verb: "Galocher." It literally means "to kiss with tongues."
Even with the addition, the Academie Francaise, which regulates French and guards against foreign words intruding on the language, has yet to accept the word.
Clearly, the French are more uptight about their prose than their pecks.

Smooching is great for your health

Today, we honor kisses -- of all varieties -- with "International Kissing Day."
Yes, it sounds silly. But kissing can actually be a good thing to promote.
According to studies, kissing helps reduce blood pressure, increases hormones that make you feel happy (serotonin, dopamine and oxytocin), burns calories, boosts self-esteem and even fights cavities.
And while a good kiss can start a life-long romance, a bad one can quickly end any chance of a new relationship.
Most of all, kissing -- especially the French kind -- is fun.
So, the next time you pucker up for an open-mouth galocher, remember who to thank for it.

Yoga

Celebrate by Practicing or learning about it. The world is a far better place when more people participate in this glorious activity!
