Module Number 2-2
Importance
VMware vSphere is based on many components that, as a vSphere administrator, you should be familiar with. This module describes the basic concept of virtualization, the types of virtualization available from VMware, and the virtual machine. This module then shows you the fundamental components of vSphere and provides some examples of how vSphere can be used in your environment.
Module Number 2-3
Lesson Objectives
Understand the concept of virtualization Identify the benefits of using a virtual machine Describe vSphere components Describe scenarios for using virtualization
Module Number 2-4
What Is Virtualization?
Virtualization is a technology that transforms hardware into software. Virtualization allows you to run multiple operating systems as virtual machines on a single computer.
Each copy of an operating system is installed into a virtual machine.
Virtualization is not:
Simulation Emulation
Module Number 2-5
How Does Virtualization Work?

A virtualization layer is installed. It uses either a hosted or hypervisor architecture.
Module Number 2-6
Host Operating SystemBased Virtualization
A host-based virtualization system requires an operating system (such as Windows or Linux) to be installed on the computer.
Module Number 2-7
Virtualization Using a Bare-Metal Hypervisor
A bare-metal hypervisor system does not require an operating system. The hypervisor is the operating system.
Module Number 2-8
What Is a Virtual Machine?

From the users perspective, it is a software platform that, like a physical computer, runs an operating system and applications. From the hypervisors perspective, it is a discrete set of files. These are the main files:
Configuration file Virtual disk file
Virtual Machine
NVRAM settings file Log file
Module Number 2-9
Why Use Virtual Machines?

Physical Machine Difficult to move or copy Bound to a specific set of hardware components Often has short life cycle Requires personal contact to upgrade hardware Virtual Machine
Easy to move and copy
Encapsulated into files Independent of physical hardware
Easy to manage
Isolated from other virtual machines running on the same physical hardware Insulated from physical hardware changes

Key Points
ESX/ESXi uses virtualization layers based on the hypervisor architecture. Virtual machines are encapsulated into files and independent of physical hardware, making them easy to move and copy between hosts. vSphere is commonly used for datacenter consolidation.
