Unleash the Power of vCenter Orchestrator to Automate Tasks and Improve Efficiency

 

Today, VMware administrators are responsible for far more infrastructure, servers, and services than ever before. To succeed, they must take full advantage of opportunities to automate and orchestrate their vSphere environments. In Automating vSphere with VMware vCenter Orchestrator, three-time vExpert Cody Bunch shows how to utilize VMware vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) 4.2 to achieve far higher levels of operational efficiency and effectiveness.

 

Bunch reveals what vCO can do, walks through each step of installation and configuration, explains how its “moving parts” work together, and thoroughly introduces both plug-ins and workflows. Building on this core knowledge, he presents several start-to-finish case studies showing how to use vCO to address real-world challenges ranging from provisioning to snapshots, cluster management to decommissioning.

 

Whatever your VMware virtualization environment, this book will help you do more with less, save time, eliminate errors, and improve both performance and reliability.

 

Coverage includes

  • Understanding how vCO fits into your environment and identifying your best opportunities to use it
  • Choosing the right installation scenario and efficiently managing the vCO installation process
  • Configuring vCO: services, passwords, networking, LDAP, databases, SSL, licensing, plug-ins, backup, and more
  • Interacting with vCO through actions, packages, plug-ins, web views, resources, and workflows
  • Automating manual tasks with vCO’s extensive workflow library
  • Creating sophisticated workflows with drag-and-drop components and JavaScript
  • Using plug-ins to control infrastructure within and around your vSphere environment
  • Bringing consistency to VM provisioning, overcoming “VM sprawl” and resource contention, and simplifying support
  • Optimizing VM lifecycle management, all the way through decommissioning
  • Automating all snapshot monitoring processes and components
  • Exporting logs, finding/deleting orphaned files, and performing other day-to-day tasks
  • Efficiently conducting mass VM migrations
  • Quickly adding vCenter hosts and clusters, configuring shared storage, and adding hosts to new clusters
  • Using vCO and third-party plug-ins to gain “private cloud” benefits and flexibility

自動化 vSphere：使用 VMware vCenter Orchestrator

技術實作

Cody Bunch

發揮 vCenter Orchestrator 的力量，自動化任務並提升效率

如今，VMware 管理員負責的基礎架構、伺服器和服務比以往任何時候都多。為了成功，他們必須充分利用機會來自動化和協調他們的 vSphere 環境。在《Automating vSphere with VMware vCenter Orchestrator》一書中，三次 vExpert Cody Bunch 展示了如何利用 VMware vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) 4.2 實現更高水平的運營效率和效能。

Bunch 揭示了 vCO 的功能，逐步介紹了安裝和配置的每個步驟，解釋了其「移動部件」如何協同工作，並全面介紹了插件和工作流程。在此基礎知識的基礎上，他提供了幾個從頭到尾的案例研究，展示如何使用 vCO 解決從供應到快照、集群管理到解除配置等現實挑戰。

無論您的 VMware 虛擬化環境如何，本書都將幫助您以更少的資源做更多的事情，節省時間，消除錯誤，並提高性能和可靠性。

本書內容包括：

- 了解 vCO 如何適應您的環境，並確定最佳使用機會
- 選擇適合的安裝方案，並有效管理 vCO 的安裝過程
- 配置 vCO：服務、密碼、網絡、LDAP、數據庫、SSL、許可證、插件、備份等
- 通過操作、套件、插件、網頁視圖、資源和工作流程與 vCO 互動
- 使用 vCO 的廣泛工作流程庫自動化手動任務
- 使用拖放元件和 JavaScript 創建複雜的工作流程
- 使用插件控制 vSphere 環境內部和周圍的基礎架構
- 提供 VM 供應的一致性，克服「VM 擴散」和資源競爭，並簡化支援
- 優化 VM 的生命周期管理，直到解除配置
- 自動化所有快照監控流程和組件
- 導出日誌，查找/刪除孤立文件，執行其他日常任務
- 高效進行大規模 VM 遷移
- 快速添加 vCenter 主機和集群，配置共享存儲，並將主機添加到新集群
- 使用 vCO 和第三方插件獲得「私有雲」的好處和靈活性
