Amidst all the recent competition from Citrix and Microsoft, VMware's vSphere product line is still the most feature rich and futuristic product in the virtualization industry. Knowing how to install and configure vSphere components is important to give yourself a head start towards virtualization using VMware.If you want to quickly grasp the installation and configuration procedures, especially by using the new vSphere 5.1 web client, this book is for you.VMware vSphere 5.1 Cookbook will take you through all the steps required to accomplish a task with minimal reading required. Most of the tasks are accompanied with relevant screenshots with an intention to provide a visual guidance as well.The book has many useful recipes that will help you progress through the installation of VMware ESXi 5.1 and vCenter Server 5.1. You will learn to use Auto Deploy and Image Profiles to deploy stateless/stateful ESXi servers, configure failover protection for virtual machines using vSphere HA, configure automated load balancing using vSphere DRS and DPM.Finally, the book guides you through upgrading or patching ESXi servers using VMware Update Manager and also deploying and configuring vSphere Management Assistant (VMA) to be able to run scripts to manage the ESXi servers.

This is an excellent handbook for system administrators, support professionals, or for anyone intending to give themselves a headstart in learning how to install, configure, and manage a vSphere environment. It is also a good task-oriented reference guide for consultants or infrastructure architects who design and deploy vSphere environments.

VMware vSphere is a complete and robust virtualization product suite that helps transform data centers into simplified on-premises cloud infrastructures, providing for the automation and orchestration of workload deployment and life cycle management of the infrastructure. This book focuses on the latest release of VMware vSphere and follows a recipe-based approach, giving you hands-on instructions required to deploy and manage a vSphere environment.The book starts with the procedures involved in upgrading your existing vSphere infrastructure to vSphere 6.5, followed by deploying a new vSphere 6.5 environment. Then the book delves further into the procedures involved in managing storage and network access to the ESXi hosts and the virtual machines running on them. Moving on, the book covers high availability and fair distribution/utilization of clustered compute and storage resources. Finally, the book covers patching and upgrading the vSphere infrastructure using VUM, certificate management using VMCA, and finishes with a chapter covering the tools that can be used to monitor the performance of a vSphere infrastructure.

VMware is the industry leader in data center virtualization. The vSphere 6.x suite of products provides a robust and resilient platform to virtualize server and application workloads.This book uses proven infrastructure design principles and applies them to VMware vSphere 6.7 virtual data center design through short and focused recipes on each design aspect. The second edition of this book focused on vSphere 6.0. vSphere features released since then necessitate an updated design guide, which includes recipes for upgrading to 6.7, vCenter HA; operational improvements; cutting-edge, high-performance storage access such as RDMA and Pmem; security features such as encrypted vMotion and VM-level encryption; Proactive HA; HA Orchestrated Restart; Predictive DRS; and more.By the end of the book, you will be able to achieve enhanced compute, storage, network, and management capabilities for your virtual data center.

Termin wirtualizacja od jakiegoś czasu jest bardzo modny. Oznacza abstrakcję zasobów obliczeniowych opartą na innych zasobach, jednak specjaliści IT słowo to kojarzą z abstrakcją sprzętu (serwerów), czyli oddzieleniem systemu operacyjnego od sprzętu, na którym jest uruchomiony. Dzięki temu na jednym fizycznym serwerze można jednocześnie uruchamiać wiele systemów operacyjnych. W takiej właśnie technologii działa rodzina produktów VMware vSphere. Tego rodzaju wirtualizacja przynosi wiele różnych korzyści, od oszczędności wynikających z mniejszej liczby potrzebnego sprzętu po lepszy dostęp do sieci i puli zasobów, które można wykorzystywać z dużo większą efektywnością. W książce znalazły się wszelkie informacje potrzebne do instalowania, konfigurowania i monitorowania wirtualnego środowiska z wykorzystaniem VMware vSphere 6.7. Zaprezentowano tu szeroki zakres możliwości vSphere, opisano też przydatne funkcjonalności i udogodnienia. Dokładnie przedstawiono zagadnienie instalacji i konfiguracji sieci wraz z magazynami danych vSphere. Kolejne rozdziały poświęcono wysokiej dostępności, nadmiarowości i wykorzystaniu zasobów. Nie zabrakło opisu tworzenia maszyn wirtualnych i zarządzania nimi, a także monitorowania ich pracy i diagnozowania problemów. To wyczerpujące kompendium wiedzy o implementowaniu, utrzymywaniu i diagnozowaniu środowisk wirtualnych klasy korporacyjnej. W książce między innymi: planowanie wdrożenia i proces wdrażania środowiska VMware vSphere konfigurowanie sieci, maszyn wirtualnych oraz pamięci masowych zarządzanie przydzielaniem i wykorzystaniem zasobów monitorowanie wydajności i dostępności infrastruktury zapewnienie ciągłości działania automatyzowanie typowych operacji administracyjnych VMware vSphere: zostań mistrzem wirtualizacji!

VMware is the industry leader in data center virtualization. The vSphere 6.x suite of products provides a robust and resilient platform to virtualize server and application workloads. With the release of 6.x a whole range of new features has come along such as ESXi Security enhancements, fault tolerance, high availability enhancements, and virtual volumes, thus simplifying the secure management of resources, the availability of applications, and performance enhancements of workloads deployed in the virtualized datacenter.This book provides recipes to create a virtual datacenter design using the features of vSphere 6.x by guiding you through the process of identifying the design factors and applying them to the logical and physical design process. You’ll follow steps that walk you through the design process from beginning to end, right from the discovery process to creating the conceptual design; calculating the resource requirements of the logical storage, compute, and network design; mapping the logical requirements to a physical design; security design; and finally creating the design documentation.The recipes in this book provide guidance on making design decisions to ensure the successful creation, and ultimately the successful implementation, of a VMware vSphere 6.x virtual data center design.
