hello,
i have a production vmware
infrastructure. it consists of several esx hosts, an iscsi san, and
about 12 virtual machines. i'd like to get some of these machines into
a lab environment, what is the most efficient way to accomplish this ?
also have a couple physical machines as well, which i plan on using
the p2v tool for . thanks
1. Create separate VLAN for Lab VMs, and use traffic shaping to limit bandwidth
2. Create new resource pool for Lab VMs, to control resource utilization(configure "share" = low)
3. Use/Take snapshots before allocating VMs to users, So you can revert it back once activity is over.
Cheers,
