Free Software Trial Allows Capacity Planning for VMware

Overview

In virtual server environments where all resource capacity (CPU, memory, storage, network) is shared, simple additions and changes can drastically affect server performance. For proper capacity planning of your VMware ESX infrastructure, you need a capacity modeling tool that emulates your dynamic data center. The patent-pending VKernel Modeler enables you to quickly simulate and validate hundreds of real-world "what if" scenarios in an interactive sandbox before going live in your production environment. By knowing the potential current and future performance impact ahead of adding virtual machines (VMs), changing capacity configurations, VMotioning servers, and much more, you will have the confidence to virtualize more and avoid costly and time-consuming problems.
