[...] All other LUNs showed supported on all three features. You can also control the usage of the VAAI features via esxtop. Rickard wrote a nice article about this, which you can find here. [...]

Comment on Using vSwitch CDP with HP switches by Thokozani

Maybe it is good to mention, that CDP can be disabled globally or per port. So if you only use CDP to discover all devices, you could miss some. At least, that’s what happened to me a while ago. I forgot some switches, because CDP was disabled on the uplink ports. CDP is propriatery to Cisco, just like Extreme Discovery Protocol is propriatery to Extreme Networks and Nortel Discovery Protocol to Nortel components. A vendor-neutral protocol is LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol)

Is not posible limit the size of default datastore? I’m installing ESXi 5 in an laptop for testing and the installer get all free space on disk for create the datastore. I only need a 100GB datastore and I want use the other 200GB available for other OS…

I don’t need a 300GB datastore, but if I delete de default datastore is imposible recreate again.

Comment on ESXi 5.0 partitions by Rickard Nobel

William, I am unsure of your comment – the blog post is on the local partitions for the installation of ESXi which can not be on NFS – and of course does NFS datastores support multiple VMs.
