Not sure if this list is the best place, but it is probably the only
list that I'm on that won't give me a bunch of grief about the chosen
technology.
I looked at VMware's site, and there are a ton of options. I'm wondering
if anyone has some basic suggestions or experiences.
I'm a Linux admin by trade (RH based), with "ok" networking ability. I'm
sufficiently versed in deploying scripted ESXi (including 5.x)
installations for a specific environment, including vswitches/SAN config
(but only with NFS datastores backed by a NetApp, unfortunately, no
blockbased stores).
I'd like to get experience deploying VCenter clusters, down to DRS/HA
config, other block based storage, and anything else a large environment
needs.
Thoughts or experiences?
