Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008

Assumptions

This guide assumes that the reader is familiar with Virtual Machine Manager and virtualization technology. It also assumes that the organization is planning a Virtual Machine Manager implementation and, if the project team chooses to integrate Virtual Machine Manager with Operations Manager, that the organization has already planned the Operations Manager infrastructure.

To limit the scope of this guide, it makes the following assumptions:

• This guide does not address the business or technical case to make a virtualization-management solution choice.

• This design is for use in a production environment. This guide assumes that the project team will also create a test environment to mirror the production environment in configuration.
