Vflash License Cost

[Keith Cogswell]

Ihave got the built-in iDRAC 6 Express working on our Dell R610's, but I am about to get some iDRAC 6 Enterprise cards, which can be gotten fairly cheaply on eBay (around 20 USD at the time of writing).

I see that these iDRAC enterprise cards have a capability to use a Dell vFlash SD card. The 8GB dell SD cards look like they are around 35 USD on eBay (I have no idea what a new card costs, and of course the ones on eBay could have had quite a lot of use). For comparison the first 8GB SD card on Amazon I looked at was around 8 USD.

Yes, pretty much any SD card will be usable in your Dell R610. However, an important consideration is that if you use a normal SD card, your iDRAC will only be able to access a single, 256 MB partition on that card.

If you do consider alternate cards, you really want to consider the card's data transfer rating ("Speed Class"). It is extremely infuriating to wait an hour to load your OS ISO because someone put a Speed Class 2 SD card in to save $10.

However, should you wish to save hardware configuration data to avoid the "replacement parts detected for device" message during boot, you need a vFlash card as licensing for this feature is tied to vFlash; a normal SD card just wont do.

The sizes vary for different costumes. Please kindly check the size chart in the description and measure yourself carefully. Most of our costumes are in Asian Sizes, please go one size up if are not sure about the sizing.

I want to setup a stand alone R730xd with vSphere Essentials installed with some fast SSD cache fronting some slower 7.2k disks. This will give me a cost effective was of providing disk capacity and performance.

I have read a few other posts here regarding Dell doing away with Cachecade and Sandisks DAS Cache not supporting vSphere 6 so that rules out all that. vSphere vFlash is only available in enterprise editions of vSphere so that rules that out as well.

I would recommend though to get Dell involved on this. @scott-sa-spiceworks SSD are cheap this day, are you trying to get this for storage or virtualization? You might benefit of VSAN. Let me see what Rod-IT @davel-spiceworks Scott Alan Miller @justin5198-spiceworks recommend on this.

My primary site has a 3 node vSAN running which has been working nicely. I am writing a business case with different options to the board to have a second site up and running (Active/Active) using Geo aware load balancers and replicating data at the application level (DAG, DFSR etc).

I would recommend you to use free StarWind VSAN -virtual-san-free for storage caching purposes. Spin up the storage controller VM on the host and pass all the desired storage through into it. Create a virtual storage device will all the caching you need (L1 for RAM and L2 for SSD) and present it back to ESX over iSCSI. As simple as that -virtual-san-getting-started .

Evrnet vFlash Card is a virtual adaptation of the traditional physical flash cards (hence the prefixed 'v' in vFlash Card). Some would call the name uninspired, they would be right (and unemployed). The initial concept was that traditional flash cards would be far surpassed by a virtual adaptation. It was based on time taken to create, reusability of the flash cards, and (most importantly) the cost of creating them. In our opinion, the cons far outweighed the pros.

Cue Evrnet vFlash Card 0.9, it was designed for students, employees, and basically, anybody that needed to learn something. Its true usefulness, however, came to sore winners (Suck it! Losers!). It was a complete suite to create and answer questions in one application. Now it's back.

The tagline is "Don't Destroy the Curve. Annihilate it.". You'll certainly be able to do that with vFlash Card v2.0. The entire application has been re-imagined and redesigned from the ground upwards. It takes a minimalist approach that focuses mainly on the task-at-hand rather than style-over-substance. While drastic changes have taken place, its core philosophy remained. It needed to be intuitive and easy-to-use as well as comprehended for all ages without being 'dumbed-down; for the kids'. We believe we accomplished this.

Users of previous versions will enjoy the ability to import Question Packs from v1.0 into vFC v2.0 and continue where they ended. Both the amount of questions and slots (Profiles or Subjects) were limited to 1, 000 and 8, respectively. Gone are the limits! Go crazy and create 9 profiles with 1,001 questions if you want. The sky's the limit (available HDD space is the sky).

Different types of questions may now be set, from regular to true or false and even questions that display an image in addition to the text. Set case sensitivity on the answers or set multiple acceptable answers. With all these new question types and unlimited question capacity, we've made the navigation of the questions easier. We even added dedicated search bars to help find questions faster.

A feature we sorely wanted to add since the very beginning (0.9), was the ability to shuffle the order of the questions. Since real tests don't display the questions in the order in which studied them. (Think you have all the answers? The I change the order of the questions. Rowdy Roddy Piper's one was better.) We wanted to give you the best tools that would help you succeed (i.e. Nail it, Kill it, Crash it, Slam It, Own it). Now we have. We also realized that certain questions will have to follow each other. This means, a question set to follow another question, will follow as intended, despite shuffling the order of the questions.

In previous versions, the stat report was little more than a dialog with the number of questions answered correctly / incorrectly and the overall elapsed time of the test. That was as far as the statistics went and some will have found this stripped-back report sufficient. We're honestly not hating on it. That's why we slightly modified it, but ultimately kept it as the simple stat report. For users who are a bit more obsessive. Check out some of these analytical features. 'Full Stats' are the full-blown version of the previously mention simple statistics report. Receive verbose analysis on each question you answered in the latest completed test. Some include the time it took to answer and the time it took to answer on the previous run.

All statistics for each question are saved and can be recalled at a later date. Some include the correct / incorrect ratio and the overall and average time spent on that question. The actual test hasn't been left outside either. Information on the test is just as easily available as the info on the questions.
