Storage configuration, including iSCSI and shared storage setup, LUN configuration, and VMFS volume management, is also a key component. The assignment further explores virtual machine creation, deployment, and management, including hot-add and hot-extend features. VCenter alarms, virtual machine migration (including VMotion and Storage VMotion), Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) cluster configuration, and High Availability (HA) cluster setup are also covered. Finally, the assignment includes network and infrastructure documentation, including ESXi settings, virtual network infrastructure, vCenter details, and DRS/HA configurations, culminating in physical and logical network diagrams. This assignment provides a thorough overview of VMware vSphere infrastructure setup and management.
