there is a fine line between agile and fragile
Maish Saidel-Keesing has revisited his previous post "Hot Add and "Need have have"" where he (like I did) pokes some fun at a rather strange error message in ESXi 4.0. Now that Update 1 is out, Maish tries again, this time with better results.
Read the whole post: "Need have have" - revisited.
I'm glad to say we don't need have have any more!
Nice little error message shown when trying to hot add a new HDD to a VM running on ESXi 4.0.
How much need have have do you need?
Clearly I'm not the first to notice this rather peculiar wording in ESXi 4. Maish Saidel-Keesing posted the same screenshot back in May 2009 in his post called Hot Add and "Need have have".
Read that post instead of mine, it also highlights what ESXi 4 is missing as well as poorly worded error messages.
Funny thing is that I can even remember reading Maish post back when it was published, but I don't remember seeing that weird error message. Oh well. :)
Thanks to Jase McCarty for pointing this out to me.
