Synopsis

With scores of step-by-step solutions, this cookbook helps you work with VMware ESXi in a wide range of network environments. You'll not only learn the basics--how to pool resources from hardware servers, computer clusters, networks, and storage, and then distribute them among virtual machines--but also how to overcome the stumbling blocks you'll encounter when you monitor systems, troubleshoot problems, and deal with security.

This expanded second edition covers recent advances in vCloud Director and vShield cloud security. Ideal for system administrators of any level, VMware Cookbook also includes valuable information to help you determine your virtualization needs.
