VMWare ESX 4 or vSphere should be released soon, VMware vSphere is loaded with news features that will further put VMware ahead of Citrix and Microsoft Enterprise Virtualization products.I am a beta tester on VMWare ESX 4. The most intriguing feature i liked in vSphere is host policy feature.
vSphere (VMware ESX 4) host profile:
A VMware vSphere host profile captures the configuration for ESX hosts. A VMware ESX host profile can be used to configure others hosts in a Cluster or for validating if VMware ESX host configurations meets the requirement set by the administrator. The vSphere concept of host profile greatly reduced the manual steps involved in configuring a host that can help maintain consistency for host configurations in a datacenter cluster.
How to use VMware vSphere Host profile:
VMware vSphere host profile can be created from fully configured VMware ESX host in a Cluster which can be applied to all hosts in a datacenter cluster.A newly created host policy can be edited to add more changes for example ntp settings or VMware port group settings for all VMware ESX hosts, profile name can be changed or copied to create another profile,description or specific profile policy option.You can also check that the host or cluster associated with a profile is in compliance with the host profile.
