Vcenter

The Vcenter is a management tool for the three nodes, it effectively combines the individual nodes (see The paper) into 1 converged cluster

Before playing with the Vcenter, please, please please please refer to the documentation. This is a good starting point vmware Docs, but this is very detailed and in depth.

The Vcenter itself is hosted on vcenter.sleep.ru.is.

The Vcenter is very delicate, and the level of expertise required to manage the VMs and maintain it is not to be understated. This is equipment that generally will require someone from Netters or Cisco to debug and debug, update, and generally maintain it.

“I cannot emphasize how badly it can go for us if this thing is misconfigured, we've already spent hours and hours and hours trying to figure out licensing, which finally had to be fixed by a netters technician who himself had to spent hours doing it” - Benedikt
