Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is used in IT coordination and handles all use of VMware virtualization bringing improvements to the virtual environment making the ROI evolve very well.

Pros and Cons

  • x64 Virtualization
  • Virtual Environment Reports
  • Suggestions and Applications for improvements in the virtual environment
  • vSphere Big Data Extensions
  • vSphere replication which is a replication tool but doesn't work very well on its own, it needs the site recovery manager which is an off-the-shelf license.
  • vSphere Data Protection that was included in vSOM did not work well and was very limited backup software.
  • Operations interface is a little tricky to use, needs a good knowledge, could be more intuitive.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is very suitable for small businesses as server virtualization works very well and you can still count on Operations to make managing your virtual datacenter easier. It is not very suitable for large data centers, as this would require more management software such as Automation, Business, Loginsight and NSX.

VSOM is a great product for virtual machine migration to a disaster recovery site.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our department used Vsphere Operations Management as a solution for disaster recovery in our environment. It was only used by a few people here on our staff. This did solve our plans for server recovery in a way that is automated. It basically scripts the powering on of replicated virtual machines into a different network.

Pros and Cons

  • The best thing about VSOM is that it's built into VCenter so you only have one point of administration
  • VSOM does a great job of making applications intuitive
  • Re-IPing virtual machines are a must and VSOM does a great job of making this a simple process
  • The installation of VSOM is very tedious
  • It uses an MS SQL database
  • It should be able to adjust for hardware modifications in VCenter

Likelihood to Recommend

Vsphere Operation Management is suitable for automating the process of bringing up an alternate data center in case of a disaster. It also is a great way for testing your readiness of disaster. You have the ability to bring up a server in a "bubble" for testing. This way you can show your admins how the failover process will work.
