Product Description
As part of the highly acclaimed Mastering series from Sybex, this book offers a comprehensive look at VMware vSphere 4, how to implement it, and how to make the most of what it offers. Coverage Includes: -
Shows administrators how to use VMware to realize significant savings in hardware costs while still providing adequate "servers" for their users -
Demonstrates how to partition a physical server into several virtual machines, reducing the overall server footprint within the operations center -
Explains how VMware subsumes a network to centralize and simplify its management, thus alleviating the effects of "virtual server sprawl" Now that virtualization is a key cost-saving strategy, Mastering VMware vSphere 4 is the strategic guide you need to maximize the opportunities.

 The new vSphere "bible" has arrived! September 10, 2009
David M. Davis (Dallas, Texas, USA)

Scott Lowe's blog has always been impressive but his new vSphere book is a real "masterpiece"!
This book starts with vSphere planning and installation and moves into daily administrative tasks. I especially enjoyed the chapters on resource allocation, high availability, and automating vSphere.
Scott's extensive real-world experience really shows through in the way that the book is written.
If you had to choose only one vSphere book - this is the book to choose!

A tech book thats easy to read October 2, 2009

I got my book about 3 weeks ago. I've read it over at least once, but never straight through as the topics I'm looking for never seem to run together. This book is one of the VERY few that I feel are the easiest to read (assuming you also have some idea of how Infrastructure 3 worked). Definitely a must read if you're interested in vSphere.
Not mastering but still a great book. October 12, 2009

To "Master" you will need to read every article about the command line and vSphere out there on the Internet. The book does an outstanding job giving you all the must have knowledge, and if you understand the book's content, you can see yourself going forward with vmware. I am also using it as a part of my prep towards the vcp4 test, and love the way it is organized. Feels like it was written by a hands on person not some technical writer, it is very clear and concise, and very well chapter-ed. Highly recommending Scott's blog as well as David Davis from Train Signal, which is probably the best video instructor you ever had.
Great book and easy to read. October 18, 2009

I needed a book to give me the details on vShere_4 and this is a great book.
Sybex books are among the best out there, I am RHEL5 Certified and I want to
get my VMware certification so I have a lot of work ahead of me.
I always found reading from a book you comprehend the material easier than
trying to read on-line manuals.
Excellent Book December 13, 2009

I purchased this book three months prior to taking the VMware Installation, Configuration, and Management course to get a head start on framing my thinking to understand virtualization. This book did this and more. I took the book to class with me just so I could enhance my learning experience and boy did it!!
