VMware and CA: Making the Most of Virtualization
Published by CA NVM on Sep 04, 2007
IT organizations are challenged to meet today’s constantly changing business needs. This need for flexibility has resulted in the rapid adoption of server virtualization, making enterprise infrastructures more responsive, while introducing management considerations unique to virtualization. Unlike physically bounded infrastructures, the entities in virtualized environments are not visually apparent or recognized by most traditional management tools. Nevertheless, you need to know what resources you have and if you are using those resources to their fullest capacity. A key consideration for any server consolidation initiative is to ensure you are making the best use of resources and that critical applications running on virtual machines receive the right allocation of shared resources. In order to meet service level agreements you need to ensure the services you provide match internal and external customer expectations. These needs call for a comprehensive management solution. Read about that solution now in this white paper.
