Systems Manageability of VMware ESXi on Dell PowerEdge Servers

Overview This paper provides a high-level overview of the manageability aspects of the VMware ESXi solution on Dell PowerEdge Servers. It discusses the various facets of manageability and the management tools that an IT Administrator can use to deploy, monitor, inventory, configure, and update an ESXi system. Virtualization has entered the mainstream and is now critical to building cost-effective, highly-available, and scalable enterprise IT infrastructures, enabling both flexible resource management and automated resource allocation based on strategic enterprise policies. Virtualized infrastructures help simplify IT operations in many ways, from helping to shield software from hardware, to enabling secure resource sharing, to facilitating software deployment and relocation.
