A few days ago, I attended a Microsoft training activity on VPC. As a Virtualization Technology launched by Microsoft very early, what is the value of VPC in Microsoft products.
During the training, the following aspects are introduced:
1. VPC is an important component of Microsoft mdop (Microsoft Desktop optimization pack.
Mdop is an Enterprise Desktop Management solution proposed by Microsoft. Mdop is a suite of tools that contain six technologies: Application Virtualization (APP-V), software asset list (AIS), troubleshooting and recovery (DRT), advanced group policy governance (AGPM), desktop virtualization (MED-V), and desktop error monitoring (scdem ). The MED-V is the VPC. In Microsoft's view, the value of VPC is embodied in personal computers. With VPC virtualization technology, a layer-1 Virtual Layer is built on the original PC operating system. Users can Virtualize a host into multiple hosts. The deployment of each virtualized PC image is independent of each other, you can use a single host to build an experimental environment for multiple hosts. From a practical understanding, at present, enterprise VPC is mainly used by some IT staff to quickly build a test environment. Formal business of enterprises to virtual machines that seldom run on VPC.
2 Windows 7 XP mode.
Added the XP mode to the upcoming Windows 7 product. In fact, this is to install a VPC on Windows 7, and then Virtualize a Windows XP. Theoretically, this provides a good buffer for migrating the software commonly used by enterprise users from XP to Windows 7. However, the VPC products in Windows 7 are quite different from the independent VPC software, especially the hardware requirements for PCs. The PC requires that the CPU must support either AMD-V or inter-Vt technology, and the motherboard should also turn on the virtualization switch in the BIOS.
This training review describes some VPC virtualization features. At the same time, the typical scenarios encountered in daily use are discussed.
For example:
1. How should I set up a VPC to test network sharing in an environment not in the network environment.
2. How to manage VPC Virtual Disks better.
3. Manage a single large file in a VPC.
In short, this is a rewarding training activity.
