VMware vCloud Director Evaluator’s Guide

5. VMware vCloud Director Evaluation Tasks

In the remainder of this evaluator’s guide, we will detail the suggested evaluation tasks to demonstrate the value

of VMware vCloud Director in a private cloud.

The tasks are:

 SetupProviderVDCs

 SetupExternalNetworks

 SetupNetworkPools

 SetupOrganizationsandusers

 SetupOrganizationVDCs

 SetupCatalogs

 UseInfrastructure-as-a-Service(IaaS)

Tasks 1 through 5 are performed by the cloud administrator initially to set up cloud infrastructure and add

tenants to the cloud. Once the initial setup is done, the cloud administrator will have to perform these tasks

relatively infrequently on an ongoing basis as the cloud matures.

Task 6 is delegated by cloud administrators to Organization administrators. Organization administrators perform

task 6 initially after creation of an Organization to add standard content to the cloud. Once the initial setup of

Catalogs, vApp templates and media is done, this is a relatively infrequent operation done as needed.

Task 7 is performed by end users of the cloud on a day-to-day basis.

When the above tasks are performed, you will:

•Have a functional private cloud solution in your lab

•See ﬁrsthand how VMware vCloud Director allows you to pool your vSphere virtualized infrastructure together

and oer standardized services for your organization

•Realize that the private cloud promotes eciencies through automation, agility and lower total cost of

ownership

Associating costs with the cloud infrastructure and running cost reports is out of the scope of this evaluation.

Refer to the VMware vCenter Chargeback Manager 1.5 Evaluator’s Guide for details regarding cost allocation and

reporting.

There are three main types of roles in the cloud:
