You may or may not have noticed while using vSphere client connected to vCenter there are keyboard shortcuts.
These can be very handy and are worth remembering ones that are useful to you. I will list all that I can find in vCenter here, as far as I know they are not listed anywhere by VMware.
This is an introduction to VMware View 4 and how its components are installed alongside vSphere to provide virtual desktops.
What VMware say View is.... "Deliver rich, personalized virtual desktops as a managed service from a virtualization platform built to deliver the entire desktop, not just applications. VMware View 4 allows you to consolidate virtual desktops on datacenter servers and manage operating systems...." Ok thats enough you get the idea.
But in plain english this means the same platform (vSphere) is used to provide users desktops. This allows for fast provisioning of desktops, improved reliability, better management etc you already know the benefits of virtulisation its just extending it to desktops.
Most commonly used is the das.isolationaddress options below which is used to detect if an ESX/ESXi server has lost connectivity with the network. Several addresses can be checked, but dont forget to set the das.usedefaultisolationaddress to false!
