VMware ESXi Dell Solution Guide

VMware ESXi Dell Solution Guide

Dell™ PowerEdge™ servers enabled with VMware® ESXi represent the next generation of servers designed specifically for virtualization. Through its close partnership with VMware, Dell is able to offer qualified VMware-based virtualization solutions optimized for today’s active data centers. With its BIOS-like footprint, VMware ESXi Server offers a standards-based management solution designed for reduced deployment time, centralized management, and increased security. When coupled with energy efficient Dell PowerEdge servers, you can also take advantage of reduced power and cooling needs, the latest in CPU technologies, reduced server downtime, and greater reliability.

This guide will help you understand the differences between ESXi Server and ESX Server versions of VMware’s Virtual Infrastructure 3 (VI3) products as they are deployed on Dell servers, how to deploy, manage, license, and support your solution, and Dell’s deployment best practices. A deployment best practices checklist is also provided (see “Appendix A: Deployment Best Practices Check List” on page 33).

VMware ESXi Server is sold as an OEM product pre-installed on Dell servers. Because ESXi Server is pre-installed, your server can be deployed within minutes by simply connecting a keyboard, monitor, and mouse, and by enabling basic Ethernet-based connectivity for management traffic; there is no need to configure local storage, install ESX from CD, or configure the server via the service console. With server data center deployments often handled by several technicians and engineers through a formal deployment process, eliminating these steps may save time and simplify IT deployment flows.

Dell™ Latitude™ D630 Quick Reference Guide

Dell™ Latitude™ D630 Quick Reference Guide

For optimal computer performance and to help preserve BIOS settings, operate your Dell™ portable computer with the main battery installed at all times. One battery is supplied as standard equipment in the battery bay.

NOTE:
Because the battery may not be fully charged, use the AC adapter to connect your new computer to an electrical outlet the first time you use the computer. For best results, operate the computer with the AC adapter until the battery is fully charged. To view battery charge status, click Start→ Settings→ Control Panel→ Power Options→ Power Meter.

NOTE:
Battery operating time (the time the battery can hold a charge) decreases over time. Depending on how often the battery is used and the conditions under which it is used, you may need to purchase a new battery during the life of your computer.

Battery operating time varies depending on operating conditions. You can install an optional second battery in the media bay to significantly increase operating time. Operating time is significantly reduced when you perform operations including, but not limited to, the following:
• Using optical drives
• Using wireless communications devices, PC Cards, ExpressCards, media memory cards, or USB devices
• Using high-brightness display settings, 3D screen savers, or other power-intensive programs such as complex 3D graphics applications
• Running the computer in maximum performance mode (see “Configuring Power Management Settings” in your User’s Guide).

Shifting from Dell rack to HP BladeSystem a Migration Guide

Shifting from Dell rack to HP BladeSystem a Migration Guide

Some of the best-run companies in the world are putting HP BladeSystem innovation to work for their business – more than any other vendor. In the first quarter of 2007, HP shipped four server blades for each one shipped from Dell. When it comes to blades, Dell’s traditional rack-mount customers are in a tough spot. Stick with the growing challenges of rack servers or upgrade to the limited blade portfolio available from Dell. Building your rack infrastructure was probably not very easy.

While it might be tempting to buy more of the same, when it comes time for your next server upgrade, HP makes it easy to choose – and even easier to integrate – a BladeSystem into your environment. Imagine the savings in administrative overhead when it is possible to configure your infrastructure in 15 minutes or less 3 and to reduce the time to perform upgrades and patches from 10 minutes to 20 seconds per server.

In typical rack environments, the bigger the system, the more unproductive time is spent managing your expanding environment. More wasted power is expended, leading to needless demands on your air conditioning system. Different departments require different applications, different programmes and different criteria. These demands lead to unmanaged growth or ‘server sprawl’. If you want more reliability, you have to buy twice as many parts. With this ‘racked, stacked and wired’ approach, you are left with problems such as:
•Inflexibility
•Low productivity
•High electric bills
•Over-provisioning

Deploying Oracle Application Server 10g on Dell PowerEdge Servers with Linux

Deploying Oracle Application Server 10g on Dell PowerEdge Servers with Linux

Over the past ten years, one of the most significant trends in corporate IT has been the emergence of the Application Platform Suite (APS). An Application Platform Suite provides the infrastructure for corporations to develop and deploy their own applications, as well as deploying third-party applications. The main enabling technology for Application Platform Suites is Java™ 2 Enterprise Edition software. J2EE provides not only powerful software tools for Enterprise development, but also provides comprehensive standards to help ensure inter-operability of all deployed applications.

While object-oriented data models are at the heart of J2EE implementations, it is possible to map an object-oriented model to a traditional relational model. This is more than an academic exercise, since the bulk of corporate data is currently stored in relational databases. This is not likely to change soon, since relational databases provide the performance, security, and high availability characteristics that corporations demand for storing persistent data. Fortunately, the combination of J2EE-enabled Application Platform Suites and persistent relational database stores has proven to be remarkably flexible and robust, and is now considered the standard platform for application development and deployment.

Therefore, it should be no surprise that one of the leading APS is offered by the leading database vendor, Oracle ® Corporation. Oracle Application Server (OracleAS) 10g Enterprise Edition offers the advantage of tight integration with Oracle Database 10g. Moreover, Oracle Application Server 10g Enterprise Edition provides a comprehensive solution for developing, integrating, and deploying a corporation’s applications, portals, and Web sites. The robust architecture of Oracle Application Server Enterprise Edition is designed to provide outstanding J2EE performance and to support a broad spectrum of applications. Major categories of Oracle Application Server applications include Business Intelligence, portal applications, wireless applications, identity management, and business integration tools. Not only does Oracle Application Server provide a platform for developing new categories of applications, it also offers a consolidated framework for deploying legacy Oracle applications, such as Forms and Reports. In addition, Oracle Application Server middleware forms the core of Oracle’s Fusion strategy for integrating diverse Enterprise applications.

The Insider’s Guide to Windows Vista

The Insider’s Guide to Windows Vista

Windows Vista is here at last. One of the largest software projects ever undertaken, Vista is indisputably a milestone—despite Microsoft’s having abandoned many of its most ambitious goals for the OS—and not just for Microsoft but for the entire PC industry. Of course, Vista is not without its skeptics. PC makers say it will require more processing power, graphics capabilities, and memory than is typical of today’s mainstream machines. Software vendors complain that Vista’s vaunted security features are, in fact, locking them out. Users may wonder if it offers enough that’s truly new to be worth the bother—particularly given that a number of Vista features and bundled applications are also available for Windows XP.

We’ve performed extensive, hands-on analysis of Vista and sorted out the claims to help you decide whether, or more realistically when, to make the move—and to show you what you can expect when you do.—next: The Vista Promise >

The Vista Promise
Microsoft calls Vista “a breakthrough computing experience.” That’s marketing hyperbole, for sure, but it’s not entirely unfounded. The new OS is far more than Windows XP with a pretty new face. Many aspects of Vista are substantive improvements: stronger security, better built-in apps, networking enhancements, parental controls, and DirectX 10 graphics support, to name just a few. As a whole, Vista feels more evolutionary than revolutionary. That’s not all bad; one of Microsoft’s strengths has been its commitment to backward compatibility, which continues with Vista. Vista’s real competitor, though, is Windows XP. For many users, XP is good enough. And for all the advances in Vista, it’s hard to avoid seeing the things that aren’t as good as they could have been..

SLAD 2 Developers and Administrators Guide

SLAD 2 Developers and Administrators Guide

The Security Local Auditing Daemon, or short SLAD, is the local component for network security scans done by the BOSS project. In principle the SLAD is a daemon that can run any given program as a demon, capturing that program’s output on the standard output and standard error streams. This output is stored in memory until requested by the user. For ease of extensibility and maintenance, the daemon reads the information about plugins (programs to be run on the local machine for auditing purposes) on startup from XML-based configuration files.

The SLAD executable, /opt/slad/bin/sladd, contains both the daemon and a command-line based frontend to it. When invoked with wrong or without any parameters, it displays the following helptext:
Usage: sladd [OPTION…]

Cisco IOS XR Security Guide

Cisco IOS XR Security Guide

This introduction contains the following:
• Definition of security and the role of security in the larger context of high network availability
• A preview of the modules in the Cisco IOS XR Security Guide
This guide describes many aspects of the system security that Cisco IOS XR software provides on the Cisco CRS-1 routers and Cisco 12000 Series Router.

Internet attacks occur every day, and these attacks can include core routers as targets—usually with some form of denial of service (DoS) attack. Fortunately, the Cisco CRS-1 router and Cisco 12000 Series Router come with a highly robust, built-in security structure. These routers can withstand attacks and remain in service until the necessary responses have been completed. This guide describes the software architecture and the hardware support for addressing these attacks. It also provides guidance on how you can further protect your investment in these products. Our security goal for the Cisco CRS-1 router and the Cisco 12000 Series Router is to neutralize attacks and recover quickly from any degradation of service. The point is to keep the router always operating, regardless of even a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack. We developed the systems that run Cisco IOS XRsoftware so that an attack on one process, service, or plane does not compromise any other process, service, or plane. For example, a process that is shut down automatically restarts, and when needed, a patch can be applied without restarting the router. Essentially, these mechanisms are:
• Modularity of services
• Separation and isolation of management, control, and data (or forwarding) planes
• Multiple layers of increasingly stringent defense
• Convenient upgradability

All of them are IEEE 488.2 compatible and are supported by 32-bit Driver488 software for Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000 and NT. These interfaces are discussed in the following Personal488 packages.

The installation process consists of running an installation setup program, and for non plug-and-play products running the Add New Hardware program found in the Windows Control Panel. The installation setup program will automatically determine the version of Windows (e.g. Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, or XP) and copy all the necessary drivers and support files to the appropriate destinations. Note that on Windows systems with AutoPlay enabled, the setup program will automatically start upon insertion of the CD.

Install the software before installing the hardware. Since the installation setup program installs driver and INF files, plug-and-play boards will be automatically configured upon first startup, thus eliminating the need to insert the CD and browse for support files. For non plug-and-play devices all that is required to complete the installation is to run “Add New Hardware.” This will notify Windows that a new device exists.

Pre-printed check stock becomes negotiable from the moment it is MICR encoded, creating countless opportunities for would-be thieves. Mekorma MICR offers unparalleled protection and control to guard against check fraud.
