I’m was one of the of the lucky bloggers who was asked to review Eric Siebert’s new book, VMware VI3 Implementation and Administration.
This book was written to cover all the various phases of implementing a virtualization project using VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 from the very initial planning stages all the way through designing, building, configuring, maintaining, troubleshooting and more. VMware has made it fairly easy to install and use their virtualization products but there’s a lot you need to know to properly setup your environment and to understand how everything works including the differences between physical and virtual servers. This book will walk you through the various stages and provide you with information and tips to guide you through them so you make informed decisions, utilize best practices and avoid common mistakes.
