Upgrading to VMware Infrastructure 3 on Dell PowerEdge Servers

Server virtualization is a key technology for scalable enterprise solutions. One of its primary advantages is the portability of virtual machines (VMs) from one physical server to another: as new generations of industry standards–based servers are released, administrators can easily migrate VMs running on the VMware ESX Server platform to the new hardware, provided the new hardware is also running ESX Server and shares storage with other ESX Server systems. Administrators can take advantage of this portability when upgrading to VMware Infrastructure 3, which not only introduces several important features but can also help provide significant performance increases when deployed on ninth generation Dell PowerEdge servers. This Whitepaper describes the advantages of this type of environment and outlines best practices to help administrators carry out this upgrade while minimizing downtime for users and applications.

Know how administrators can limit VM downtime during the upgrade process to just a few minutes.
