Creating the additional VMs on the host server
After installing and configuring the initial VM, we created the additional VMs through automated cloning scripts.
Cloning the VMs
We used a shell script on the ESX Server to copy the Virtual Disks, and to clone the VMs. This shell script copied
the VM definition and virtual disks, and registered the new VM in ESX, using the vmware-cmd utility. Using these
automated cloning scripts saved time and let us confirm that we configured all VMs similarly.

Setting up and configuring the HP DL385 server and HP Modular Smart Array 30 storage
We installed a fresh copy of Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 2 on the HP ProLiant
DL385.
We installed four internal drives in the HP DL385. We attached the server to a Modular Smart Array 30 (MSA30).
We cabled the MSA30 to the Smart Array 6400 storage adapter in the server via one SCSI cable. The I/O module
on the MSA30 was a single port I/O module, so all SCSI traffic flowed through the one cable.
