VMware is a powerful and flexible platform for pooling the resources from computer clusters or several hardware servers and distributing them quickly. This book provides a look into real-world use of VMware ESX and ESXi, with step-by-step solutions for problems that occur in a wide range of environments.
Many resources exist for learning virtualization technology and the foundations of the VMware software package, including installation and simple configuration. This book provides a deeper look into practical usage. Written by experts with experience using VMware in a production environment, VMware Cookbook shares tips and tricks learned through trial and error, and supplies the background you need to apply them. You'll view VMware as part of its environment, with attention to operating systems, storage, and logical and physical network components.
Major topics include:
- Installation best practices
- Disk storage implementations and configurations
- Logical and physical network configuration
- Security and monitoring
- Resource Management, using the Distributed Resource Scheduler, shares, and resource pools
