Welcome to the New VMware Community, VMTN!

VMware's Technology Network (VMTN) provides technical and community resources to help understand new advances in virtualization technologies and successfully develop and deploy applications in virtual environments using VMware products.

VMware Releases P2V Assistant 2.0.2

P2V Assistant 2.0.2, the new maintenance release of VMware's enterprise-class tool for physical to virtual machine migration, adds support for ESX Server 2.5 and Workstation 5, and P2V Assistant Boot CD support for additional servers, storage adapters and network interface cards.

Best Practices Using VMware Virtual SMP

With VMware Virtual SMP, multi-threaded applications can run in a single virtual machine spanning multiple physical CPUs. Advanced ESX Server administrators should use these best practices to understand the factors and trade-offs in deploying Virtual SMP.
