The Capitol Grille in Burlington, MA
Attend to enter a drawing. Win a $200 Capitol Grille gift certificate.

Why should you attend?

I can think of at least three reasons: 1. Good information. 2. Good company with your peers. 3. Great food and drink.

Over the past year we’ve installed many EqualLogic iSCSI SANs in organizations of all sizes – many of them supporting VMware environments. During the seminar we’ll show you why our customers chose Dell/EqualLogic SANs to:

• Deploy a virtualized storage environment with VMware
• Consolidate your storage environment
• Implement an IP-based disaster recovery solution
• Implement a tiered storage strategy
• Streamline your backup process

While simple in concept, VMware is complex. It contains components that make virtualization possible and quite manageable in limited configurations. However when you begin to expand into multiple ESX servers and multiple virtual machines competing for resources – effective management becomes an issue.

That‘s why initial capacity planning and on-going performance monitoring are essential to virtualization success.

In “VMware Basics – Capacity Planning and Performance Monitoring,” we give you an overview of VMware’s underlying structural complexity and discusses ways to effectively plan for and manage your virtual resources.

Enterprise-class software that allows you to manage your virtual infrastructure. VirtualCenter provides the central point of control for enterprise-wide workload management, provisioning and availability. It simplifies IT so companies leverage their storage, network, and computing resources to control costs and respond faster.

VMware HA is a feature-rich product that continuously monitors all physical servers in a resource pool and restarts virtual machines affected by server failure.

VirtualCenter Datasheet

• Detects server failures automatically, using a “heartbeat” on servers.
• Monitors capacity continuously to ensure space is always available to restart virtual machines in the event of server failure.
• Restarts virtual machines almost instantly without human intervention on a different physical server within the same resource pool.
• Chooses the optimal physical servers within a resource pool on which to restart virtual machines (if used in conjunction with VMware DRS).

ESX Server speeds service deployments and adds management flexibility by partitioning x86 servers into a pool of secure, portable and hardware-independent virtual machines. Customers minimize total cost of ownership by greatly increasing server utilization and simplifying system administration. The unique bare-metal architecture of ESX Server offers reliability, performance and scalability exceeding any other server virtualization technology.

ESX Server Datasheet

Start Achieving the Benefits of Virtualization

• ESX Server installs on the “bare metal” and allows multiple unmodified operating systems and their applications to run in virtual machines that share physical resources.
• Each virtual machine represents a complete system, with processors, memory, networking, storage and BIOS.
• Advanced resource allocation policies for virtual machines allow you to guarantee resources to even your most resource-intensive applications.

Begin enjoying the benefits of server virtualization with the free VMware Server. VMware Server installs on any existing server hardware and partitions a physical server into multiple virtual machines by abstracting processor, memory, storage and networking resources, giving you greater hardware utilization and flexibility. Streamline software development and testing and simplify server provisioning as you utilize the ability to “build once, deploy many times.”

VMware Server Datasheet

VMware Server is ideal for:

• Streamline software development and testing by allowing developers to create multiple environments with different operating systems on the same server.
• Simplify IT testing of patches, new applications and operating systems by allowing systems administrators to test in secure virtual machines and be able to roll back to a clean state by leveraging snapshots.
• Simplify server provisioning by building a virtual machine once and deploying it multiple times.
• Evaluate software in ready-to-run virtual machines without installation and configuration.
• Re-host legacy operating systems such as Windows NT Server 4.0 and Windows 2000 Server in a virtual machine running on new hardware and operating system.
