Installation Deployment ESXi
A the benefits of virtualization
1 reduce the number of servers, reduce hardware procurement costs
2 Maximizing resource utilization
3 reduce the room space, heat dissipation, the cost of electricity consumption
4 Hardware resources can be dynamically adjusted to improve enterprise IT Business Agility
5 High Availability
6 physical hardware adjustment without interruption of service
7 Lower management costs
8 more efficient in-capacity
Two VSphere Basic Physical Architecture
1 virtualized Servers
also known as the Physical service area ( X86 Server), providing CPU and memory virtualization resources through a network server, and virtual machines running on them
2 Network Services
used to connect all the devices in the entire architecture
3 Storage Network
all data that can be used to store virtualization
4 Centralized Management Server
Add multiple ESXi is placed in a single cluster for unified management. Resources can also be shared between virtual machines
5 customer Service side
for user connections ESXi or vCenter manages and allocates a variety of resources
Three version of VSphere
1 Standard Edition
Basic server consolidation can be achieved
2 Enterprise Edition
can significantly improve efficiency and resource management
3 Enterprise Enhanced Edition
powerful flexibility, operability, stability, and controllability to transform the data center into a very simplified cloud computing environment
Four VSphere 's License
After ESXI installation is complete, the evaluation period is set by default , and users can convert from evaluation mode to licensing mode at any time of day .
VSphere license keys are calculated by the number of CPUs
Five Server Hardware Selection
Most enterprises now use the server brand is mainly: IBM,DELL,HP. These servers are very good for vSphere hardware compatibility
1 can only be installed and run on a X86CPU server
2 The host has at least 2 cores of CPU (multiple ESXi networks are to select the same vendor Intel or AMD, otherwise vSphere isnot supported advanced features provided )
3 requires at least 4GB of physical memory
4 hardware virtualization feature must be turned on (vt-x or RVI)
5 requires one or more gigabit or 10GB Ethernet Controllers
6 Basic SCSI controller. namely Adaptec Ultra-160
