How to Manage a VMware Infrastructure or VMware vSphere in System Center Virtual Machine Manager

  • 아티클

I am being asked this more frequently.  How can you manage VMware environments in System Centre Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM)? 

Check out this wiki on the subject : https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/how-to-manage-a-vmware-infrastructure-or-vmware-vsphere-in-system-center-virtual-machine-manager-sc-vmm.aspx

The key points from this wiki are:

  • SCVMM 2008 R2 can manage vSphere 2.x and vSphere 3.x with comparable functionality.
  • SCVMM 2008 R2 can manage vSphere 4.x but with vSphere 3.x funtionality.
  • SCVMM 2008 R2 uses the vSphere API's to manage VMware environments.  You cannot manage VMware without vSphere.
  • Depending on how you have your vSphere environment configuired, you have to make some security decisions.  Full explaination here : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd548299.aspx

Virtual Machine Manager is due for an upgrade later this year.  SCVMM 2012 extends the functionality further.  Check out the beta overview : https://blogs.technet.com/b/scvmm/archive/2011/03/28/scvmm-2012-beta-overview.aspx
