VMware vCenter Server

VMware vCenter Server is a central management point for the hypervisors and virtual machines. VMware

vCenter is installed on a 64-bit Windows Server and runs VMware Update Manager as a service to help

manage host patches.

VMware Update Manager is installed on a separate Windows Server and runs as a Windows service.

VMware vCenter Server allows you to clone virtual machines and create templates. VMware vCenter

Server also provides monitoring and alerting capabilities for hosts and virtual machines. Vblock System

administrators can create and apply alarms to all managed objects in VMware vCenter Server. These

alarms include:

•

Datacenter, cluster, and host health, inventory, and performance

•

Datastore health and capacity

•

Virtual machine usage, performance, and health

•

Virtual network usage and health

AMP-2V

The second generation of the Virtual Advanced Management Platform (AMP-2V), formerly the Logical

Advanced Management Platform (LAMP), resides in a vAPP located across two nondedicated compute

servers in the Vblock System. AMP-2V shares resources with other production workloads for hardware

cost efficiency.

Databases

The backend database that supports VMware vCenter Server and VMware Update Manager (VUM) is

Microsoft SQL Server 2012 for vSphere 5.5. For VMware vSphere 5.5 and higher, a second SQL server

database exists for Single Sign-on. The SQL Server service requires a dedicated service account,

depending on the security requirements.

Authentication

Vblock Systems support the VMware vCenter Single Sign-On (SSO) Service capable of the integration of

multiple identity sources including Active Directory, Open LDAP, and local accounts for authentication.

VMware SSO is available in VMware vSphere 5.5 and higher. VMware vCenter Server, Inventory, Web

Client, SSO, Core Dump Collector, and Update Manager run as separate Windows services. Each

service is configured to use a dedicated service account, depending on the security and directory

services requirements.

VCE supports the following VMware vCenter Server features:

•

VMware Single Sign-On (SSO) Service (version 5.5 and higher)
