3 1.Introducing vCenter Server 1.iNtroducing a VMware has a number of other products, but vCenter Server is considered the central integration point tying them all together Software such as vRealize Automation, Site Recovery manager, and its often-paired vSphere Replication, as well as vRealize Operations Manager all depend on an instance of v Center Server to integrate into the VMware environment Not only this, much of the advanced functionality that vSphere offers comes only when vCenter Server is present 河南中医药大学/阮晓龙/13938213680/htp/cloudxg.hactcm.edu.cn/http:/www5ucwebcn

4 1.Introducing vCenter Server 1.iNtroducing a Specifically, vCenter Server offers core services in the following areas Resource management for ESXi hosts and VMs Template management ■ VM deployment ■ VM management a Scheduled tasks Statistics and logging Alarms and event management ■ ESXi host management 河南中医药大学/阮晓龙/13938213680/htp/cloudxg.hactcm.edu.cn/http:/www5ucwebcn

6 1.Introducing vCenter Server 1.iNtroducing o V Center Server can be installed in two ways The historic approach is an application installed on a Windows Server, but as of vSphere 6.7, this will be the last release of this deployment the other format is as a Linux-based virtual appliance but for now, the vCenter Server virtual appliance(which you may see referred to as VCVA or VCSA) offers an option to quickly and easily deploy a full installation of v Center Server and Platform Services on VMware's open source Photon OS 河南中医药大学/阮晓龙/13938213680/htp/cloudxg.hactcm.edu.cn/http:/www5ucwebcn

1.Introducing vCenter Server 1.cEntralized user authentication a Centralized user authentication is not listed as a core service of VCenter Server but it is essential to how vCenter Server and many other VMware products operate a The Platform Services Controller(PSC)is the medley of components that comprise the service of vCenter Single Sign-On(SSO) including the Secure Token Service(STS) and Identity Management Service(IDm) It is a prerequisite for installing vCenter Server Center Server cannot be installed without SSo being available first 河南中医药大学/阮晓龙/13938213680/htp/cloudxg.hactcm.edu.cn/http:/www5ucwebcn

9 1.Introducing vCenter Server 1.pLatform Services Controller a vSphere 6.0 introduced a new component called the platform Services Controller(PSC). This component has remained in the VSphere architecture up through VSphere 6.5, and now VSphere 6.7 a It is used to run common components for Vmware products in a central or in distributed location(s) The psc offers multiple services Single Sign-On(SSO) ensing m Certificate Authority Certificate Store Service Registry 河南中医药大学/阮晓龙/13938213680/htp/cloudxg.hactcm.edu.cn/http:/www5ucwebcn
