Raw Device Mappings (RDMs) can be difficult to work with when managing a virtual datacenter and with the latest vSphere storage capabilities you may not need RDMs any longer. Join Steve Tilkens (@stevetilkens) as he gets hands-on with RDMs and demonstrates how to migrate VMs with RDMs and convert RDMs to VMDKs.
Adobe Flash Player is End of Life on 12/31/2020. Zachary Johnson and Jason Schertzinger discuss what this means for certain VMware products and what you need to know as a result.

One of the questions we occasionally hear is: What is the difference between vRealize Automation and vRealize Orchestrator? This video will help you understand the difference and respective strengths of these two products.
This session will review the tenets of vRealize Operations Manager 8.0 and explore the Self-Driving functionality and features found in the new Troubleshooting Workbench,
In this session, we highlight two different approaches to solving the vCenter STS Certificate Expiration Issue (KB79248 & KB76719) via automation. Christopher Price joins us with his customer, David Crown (@_davecrown), to highlight how they leveraged Ansible and Mark McGill shows us his approach via PowerShell.

With the release of vSphere 7, customers can now move beyond authentication mechanisms like SSO domain users, LDAP(S), and joining vCenter to their Active Directory domains. Identity Federation allows for us to leverage enterprise identity providers, like Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), to grant access to vSphere! Join Bill Hill (@virtual_bill), for this TAM Lab session where we walk through what this looks like and how our customers can leverage this in their environment.
On this session, Kenny Coleman will show how you can combine all the open-source components needed to run Kubernetes on vSphere. From CSI, CCM, Cluster API, Kubeadm, and more. Then we dive into the Tanzu portfolio and look at Tanzu Kubernetes Grid, vSphere with Kubernetes, and Tanzu Mission Control.
