How does network traffic travel between VM's on different blades in the same BladeCenter?
we have several ibm bladecenters H with a few hundred hosts across the blades. i know that on stand alone servers, VMs on the same vswitch don't have to send network traffic out to a physical switch to pass data back and forth, it goes through the vswitch to the other VM, but how does data move...

Bladecenter ESX server Vlan problem
Hello, The bladecenter was initially setup by a company and allows me to only create VM's from Vlan 2. The issue is that I am out of Ip's in that vlan and I wanted the ability to use another address space for the VM's. I've already created a new vlan 20. Here is the current config of the...

ESX luns allocated on Symmetrix will not format.
Recently we allocated Symmetrix space for an ESX cluster. Some of the LUNs format fine but one or two come up with an error message that says "unable to read partition information from this disk." All of the luns were exactly the same capacity. The ESX is currently attached to a Symmetrix array as...

Reconfiguring network switches as 802.1q VLAN trunks for VMware ESX implementation
My data center network switches are configured as access ports, but we are soon implementing VMware ESX. Is there an easy way to reconfigure the switches to operate as 802.1q VLAN trunks to take advantage of VMware's VLAN management support?

VMWare ESX vs. Virtual Center
Looking at the VMware Infrastructure package. I've already got the SAN + switches, so it'd be a matter of buying server hardware and software licenses. The SAN I'm using is currently limited to 16 hosts. One of which is a physical server already up and running on it. Another would be the physical...
