DRS and DPM VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler, or DRS, enables you to leverage your data center hardware by monitoring system usage and distributing workloads appropriately. But if you're using both DRS and VMotion, the two can clash and negatively effect virtual machine performance. That in mind, an expert offers a few best practices for keeping your infrastructure optimized while running DRS and VMotion at the same time in one of the tips you'll find here. VMware Distributed Power Management, or DPM, helps you 'go green' in your data center by keeping virtual servers on stand-by until end-user activity requires additional computing resources. This keeps your electricity and cooling costs down. Our experts offer tips for both those just getting started and those already familiar with DPM.
