GuessMyOS Plug-in from H9Labs

So it seems that Andrew Kutz is having a nice time since he joined Hyper9. He has released a
new plug-in for all our use.

So what does it do? It changes the icons for the VM that you have to reflect their OS. There are Icons for Windows and Linux at the moment.

Seamless download at 1mb (zip file enveloping an msi file) – Installed within 2 minutes and working perfectly. It is not earth shattering – but it gives you a nice visual about which OS you are looking at.

Here is the before and after

Before

vSphere Client inventory list where GuessMyOS plug-in replaced VM icons with hand-drawn cartoon-style OS icons

After

vSphere Client inventory pane showing VMs with custom GuessMyOS guest-OS icons from the H9Labs plugin

Andrew and H9Labs are promising some good things for the future – so stay tuned..
