Customer Reviews & Comments
Scott Lowe's blog has always been impressive but his new vSphere book is a real "masterpiece"!
This book starts with vSphere planning and installation and moves into daily administrative tasks. I especially enjoyed the chapters on resource allocation, high availability, and automating vSphere.
Scott's extensive real-world experience really shows through in the way that the book is written.
If you had to choose only one vSphere book - this is the book to choose!
