Due to the superior nature of ESXi, VMware will discontinue the classic Service Console-based ESX in the near future. If you are a long-time user of ESX and have developed your management procedures around the Service Console, then come to this session to learn how to migrate to a new, improved operational model. We will show how to adapt your process for all aspects of management, including: hardware monitoring, backup, systems management, user management, logging, troubleshooting, and more. You should be able to leave this session armed with the tools necessary to be prepared for the transition to ESXi.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more details or to view other sessions at VMworld 2009, please visit &lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://vmworld2009.wingateweb.com/scheduler/catalog/catalog.jsp"&gt;https://vmworld2009.wingateweb.com/scheduler/catalog/catalog.jsp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let us know what events you would like to see featured on the VMworld blog!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:c6c46020-bfae-4340-8139-987dcd42660e] --&gt;</description>

You will come away with concrete things that will make a difference. Every year VMworld has set my agenda for the next 12 months, none more than last year!" &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To read more about why you shouldn't miss VMworld 2009,visit Rodney Haywood's blog: &lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://rodos.haywood.org/2009/06/attend-vmworld-2009.html"&gt;http://rodos.haywood.org/2009/06/attend-vmworld-2009.html&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;See you at VMworld 2009!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:835b5ddb-f6a7-400a-a282-3582562e5880] --&gt;</description>
