Faster login to Linux via SSH
It usually took a very long time to login my Linux VMs (CentOS 6, 7 and SuSE11 SP3) via SSH.
After some research, I've found the following.
RHEL 7
[abc@RHEL7 ~]# vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Set GSSAPIAuthentication no
[abc@RHEL7 ~]# service sshd restart
Other Linux distros
[abc@CentOS ~]# vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Set UseDNS no
[abc@CentOS ~]# vi /etc/resolv.conf
options single-request-reopen ;in the last line. No network restart required
I didnt even update resolv.conf part, it is working very fast for CentOS 7.2. It might be different on other distros.

Faster VM shutdown in VMWare player
Locate .vmx of the desired VM's folder. Open it using a text editor.
Add the following lines in the file (or update to the following if such attributes exist).
prefvmx.minVmMemPct = "100"
mainMem.useNamedFile = "FALSE"
mainMem.partialLazySave = "FALSE"
mainMem.partialLazyRestore = "FALSE"

Installing Scrapy in Windows 7 64-bit
It's been a long time that I want to try out some kind of program to crawl websites and extract info/data from them. Recently, I've tried powershell which had a decent outcome. However, it was not easy as the language was designed for some other purpose. Thus, I decided to check scarpy out.
The following would be the steps to install Scrapy in Windows 7 64-bit.
Hope it helps to install scrapy in Windows 7 64-bit.
The following would be the steps to install Scrapy in Windows 7 64-bit.
- It starts with the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 which is downloaded from Microsoft.
- Install Python 2.7.13 (using python-2.7.13.amd64.msi) which is downloaded from python.org.
- Then install Python for Windows Extensions (using pywin32-220.win-amd64-py2.7.exe).
- Once the installation is completed, the folder path that python is installed must be added to PATH environment variable in Windows.
- Check the installation and path added by checking python and pip versions in command prompt.
python --version
pip --version - Once python and pip are displaying versions correctly, scrapy can be installed using
pip install scrapy - For me, the installation faces some issue when it looks for libxml related libraries.

-build-g2zcer\lxml\
- To resolve the above, steps in stackoverflow.com is followed. It has been suggested to download lxml-3.6.4-cp27-cp27m-win_amd64.whl and install it using this command.
pip install lxml-3.6.4-cp27-cp27m-win_amd64.whl - Once it is successfully installed, re-run pip install scrapy again. It should be successful now.
- Finally, tutorial from scrapy.org is run with results.
Hope it helps to install scrapy in Windows 7 64-bit.

Run task scheduler in command line
schtasks is used to create/run tasks in command line without the need to open "Task scheduler".
I've tried query and run parameters but not yet for create.
It is required to provide the task name including the folder that task is created in.
To query if a task exists
To run the task
It is needed to run tasks in elevated command prompt though.

IBM DSA utility to collect logs
A few command line switches can be used together with dsa to collect logs in different format.
When the executable is run without any parameters, it would save the log in XML format.
> ibm_utl_dsa_dsyte1d-9.61_portable_windows_x86-64.exe
To generate it in HTML format, -v must be used.
> ibm_utl_dsa_dsyte1d-9.61_portable_windows_x86-64.exe -v
To convert the log generated in XML to HTML format, the following command is used.
> ibm_utl_dsa_dsyte1d-9.61_portable_windows_x86-64.exe -v -x -i generated_log.xml.gz
To compare current log with previously collected one, -r switch with log files names together is used. Both logs must be generated using same version of DSA though.
> ibm_utl_dsa_dsyte1d-9.61_portable_windows_x86-64.exe -r generated_log_001.xml.gz generated_log_001.xml.gz -v

How to calculate to get an exact partition size
It is sometimes not great to see a partition size like 99.96GB or 100.30GB in My Computer. It is just not nice. I am a bit particular when it is about partition sizes. As Microsoft has chosen the way to partition using numbers in MB, it is always the issue, resulting in funny number of GB.
I used to go to a website and calculate the partition size but I unfortunately do not have access to it anymore. So, it has to be manual. This trick worked like a charm when I tried to resize a partition that was factory partitioned. I believe it would work for other situations as well.
What I did was for my 150GB partition after seeing someone's post in superuser.com.
Since I want a 150GB partition, I calculated like the following.
(1024 x 150 ) + 4 = 153604
For every 1GB, it should be multiplied by 1024 and then 4MB should be added.
Mission accomplished finally. :)

Download youtube clips (and subtitles)
youtube-dl. It is a small standalone executable file to download youtube clips and subtitles. I have no doubt this is a nice utility which does not have GUI unfortunately. So, one has to check the parameters for different download scenarios. I like to share the parameters I have tried successfully so far.
Download clip + subtitle
youtube-dl.exe --write-srt --sub-lang en https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx
Download clip only
youtube-dl.exe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx
Download subtitle only
youtube-dl.exe --write-srt --sub-lang en --skip-download https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx
--sub-lang may be replaced with desired language such as fr,es, and so on.
