VMware vSphere 4.1 HA and DRS Technical Deepdive zooms in on two key  components of every VMware based infrastructure and is by no means a  "how to" guide. It covers the basic steps needed to create a VMware HA  and DRS cluster, but even more important explains the concepts and  mechanisms behind HA and DRS which will enable you to make well educated   decisions. This book will take you in to the trenches of HA and DRS and   will give you the tools to understand and implement e.g. HA admission  control policies, DRS resource pools and resource allocation settings. On top of  that each section contains basic design principles that can be used for  designing, implementing or improving VMware infrastructures. This book is also the ultimate guide to be prepared for any HA or DRS related questions and case studies that might be presented during VMware VCDX, VCP and or VCAP exams.Coverage includes:  HA node types  HA isolation detection and response  HA admission control  VM Monitoring  HA and DRS integration  DRS imbalance algorithm  Resource Pools  Impact of reservations and limits  CPU Resource Scheduling  Memory Scheduler  DPM
