Jira Vmware Appliance Marketplace
Jira Vmware Appliance Marketplace Locations
I've spent HOURS trying to get Jira installed on a Linux/Apache/Tomcat server. I found your installation documentation very inadequate, and in the end does not work. I have opened up a trouble ticket and am waiting for support to contact me.Many other products I've been evaluating have pre-built virtual appliances that I can download and boot using VMWare. All I needed to do was download them, unzip them, and fire up the VM.
These appliances are ready-to-run and configured with default parameters so you can be up and running FAST so that customers can spend their time evaluating the product, and not trying to get it to run.I'm not interested in a hosted option, which is why I'm installing it in-house. If we like the product and decide to move forward, I can move it from my workstation VM to our VMWare vSphere 4 environment.Thank you for your consideration.
Combining VMware Workstation and VMware Appliances can help you adapt to change quickly and learn new skills on the fly, as it did for me. The cost is low, and you can focus on exactly what you need without getting bogged down in the details.
Read how I managed to learn Oracle when my role as senior systems engineer rapidly evolved to include multi-tier applications support when our database/application specialist bowed out of his role.A brief backgroundOver the past decade, I have weathered three different 'mergers and acquisitions,' at the same company, with the possibility of another appearing last week. Lately, some have started (I like to think they do so kindly, and maybe with a little reverence) referring to me as 'LMS' - Last Man Standing. I'm the last original member of the team that built the infrastructure that we currently use.Change is not easy - no one ever said it was. It is disruptive, stressful, and can be extraordinarily frustrating at times. Change can overtake us and crush us like an unfortunate bug, or it can propel us forward into new directions and terrain that we would never have experienced otherwise. What is it that makes the difference? I believe it is our attitude.
Coincidentally, our attitude itself is in a constant state of flux as well, influenced by myriad factors. Thus, coping with change may seem overwhelming and intimidating one minute, and the very next minute seem as insignificant and normal as what flavor of latte to pick.Despite the significant organizational changes I have experienced at my place of employment, my general role as senior systems engineer has remained pretty much intact. Sure, operating systems, virtualization and storage technologies change, but that tends to be more evolutionary than revolutionary.
That was then, this is now.
