Improved Reliability

Hard drives represent one of the greatest sources of hardware failures in data

center environments. Shared storage arrays (fibre channel or iSCSI) are better

suited for virtual machine (VM) and data storage than local hard drives,

providing higher levels of performance and increased single point of failure

recovery. Additionally, solid-state, internal storage is easier to configure than

other hard drive-less solutions, such as Boot-from-SAN. Because shared

storage arrays are required to take advantage of ESX Server 3i enterprise and

standard-level features, Dynamic Resource Scheduling (DRS) and High-

Availability (HA), server local hard drives are not needed.

Rapid Deployment and Provisioning

Dell offers VMware ESX Server 3i pre-installed direct from the Dell factory,

enabling greatly simplified data center deployment and provisioning. For the

first time, VMware users have the ability to go from box to rack to processing

workloads in minutes.
