VMware announced major upgrades to its entire cloud infrastructure stack, including vSphere 5, vCloud Director 1.5, vShield 5, and vCenter SRM 5. The key changes in vSphere 5 licensing include moving from a per-processor licensing model with core and memory restrictions, to an unlimited core model with a pooled vRAM entitlement. Each vSphere license provides a set amount of vRAM that can be used across all hosts managed by a vCenter. Compliance is measured by whether the average daily consumed vRAM stays below the total pooled entitlement. The new model aims to provide more flexibility without disruption to existing customers.
This document discusses VMware's new vSphere 5 licensing model. Key points include:
- vSphere 5 introduces a new pooled vRAM licensing model where each processor license contributes to an overall vRAM entitlement pool shared across all hosts/VMs rather than individual per-host entitlements.
- Compliance is determined by whether the 12-month rolling average of consumed vRAM stays below the total pooled vRAM entitlement across all licenses.
- vSphere 5 is packaged into various new editions with different features and price points, including a new vSphere Desktop edition for VDI workloads with unlimited vRAM.
- Existing customers will generally move to the new model upon upgrading to vSphere 5 while
- vSphere 5.0 introduces several new platform enhancements including support for 2TB of host memory, 160 logical CPUs, and 512 VMs per host. ESXi now runs exclusively as the hypervisor.
- Storage features are improved with VMFS-5, which supports volumes over 2TB and faster operations. Storage DRS allows for initial placement and load balancing of VMs across datastores.
- Networking features include support for multiple vMotion NICs for faster migration. The new web client allows remote administration from any browser.

Watch this webinar with Scott Lowe, Founder and Managing Consultant at The 1610 Group, and SolarWinds virtualization expert Jonathan Reeve where they discuss “Hyper-V vs. vSphere: Understanding the differences.”
The virtualization market is abuzz with talk of different hypervisors – most prominently VMware ESX® versus Microsoft Hyper-V®, who together own over 90% of the market. Small and medium businesses are already moving quickly toward Hyper-V, and a growing number of larger organizations are beginning to put plans in place to transition some portion of their environment from ESX to Hyper-V.
In this webcast we explore the reasons for these changes and the ecosystems for these two platforms both now and in the future. We also take a look ahead to what is known about Hyper-V 3.0 and why it warrants an even deeper look when evaluating hypervisors for your future virtualization deployments.
This document provides an in-depth overview of VMware High Availability (HA). It discusses admission control policies, how HA calculates slot sizes based on CPU and memory reservations, and how it determines failover capacity. It also covers datastore heartbeats that HA uses to check host liveness and communicate during network outages, allowing it to determine if a host is failed, isolated, or partitioned. The document emphasizes properly configuring HA and understanding how reservations and runtime information impact its operation.

This document discusses several topics related to gene regulation and transcription factors. It summarizes research that found mutations accumulating in gene regulatory elements in colorectal cancer samples. While transcription factors like CTCF and cohesins were generally protected from mutations, tumors with more CTCF site mutations tended to have more mutations throughout their genomes. Another study identified a new structural role for the ATF5 protein in cell division within the centrosome, in addition to its role regulating gene expression. Failure of centrosome duplication can lead to issues with cell division and conditions like cancer. Understanding these transcription factors and their roles is important for learning about disease mechanisms and developing treatments.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

vRAM Pool
(using 80 GB out of 256GB)
vSphere 5 Licensing In Action
Each CPU must have at least one vSphere license
assigned
• Cores and physical RAM do not matter
Each processor license managed by a vCenter or
multiple vCenters in Linked mode contributes an
amount of vRAM capacity to the total vRAM pool
• Example: 4 vSphere Ent. Licenses create a vRAM pool
of 256GB of vRAM (4 x 64GB)
• Each vSphere Edition creates a separate pool that
must be kept in licensing compliance
vRAM pool is shared among powered-on VMs
running on all hosts in a vCenter
• Example: 20 VMs with 4GB of configured vRAM
consume a total of 80GB vRAM
• It doesn’t matter how many VMs you run and on which
hosts you run them.
• vMotion, DRS, HA do not require additional licenses
At any point in time the 12 month rolling average of
daily high watermark of consumed vRAM must be
equal or less to the vRAM pool capacity
• Compliance is at the vCenter level not the host level
vRAM pool can be extended by:
• Upgrading all CPUs to higher end vSphere Edition
• Adding processor licenses to the same set of CPUs
• Adding a new host with new licenses

In this example:
• Licensing Host A with vSphere 5 requires the
same number of licenses as with vSphere 4.x
• Licensing Host B with vSphere 5 requires half
the licenses of vSphere 4.x (2 vs. 4) because
vSphere 5 does not limit the number of cores
per processor
Answer
Example
Host A
2 sockets, 4 cores per CPU, 48GB RAM
Host B
2 sockets, 12 cores per CPU, 64GB RAM
Like in vSphere 4.x, each CPU requires at

Any VM can run on any host within a vRAM
pool. Since vRAM is pooled across all hosts of
the same vSphere edition under a vCenter
Server, the movement of VMs cannot cause
more vRAM to be needed.

Answer
Example
The vRAM pool can extend across multiple
linked vCenter Servers. vCenter Servers
(Standard Edition) can be linked together using
Linked Mode.
Site 1 and Site 2 each contain a host with two
licenses of Enterprise. Each site has 128GB of
pooled vRAM capacity in a separate pool.
When the vCenter Servers at each site are linked
together, one vRAM pool is created with 256 GB
of pooled vRAM capacity.

Editor's Notes
Customers are getting hit by core and physical memory restrictions
“How will I license vSphere when my CPUs are over 6 or 12 cores?”
CPU cores and physical entitlements are tied to a single server and cannot be shared among multiple ones reducing flexibility and utilization
Rapid introduction of new hardware technologies require constant amendments to the licensing mode creating uncertainty over planning
“What happens if I use SSD or hyperthreading or etc.?”
Hardware based entitlements make it difficult for customers to transition to the usage based cost and chargeback models that characterize cloud computing and IT as a Service
vSphere Desktop is a new edition of vSphere for deploying desktop virtualization. It provides the full range of features and functionalities of the vSphere Enterprise+ edition allowing you to achieve scalability, high availability and optimal performance for all of your desktop workloads. Also, vSphere Desktop enables you to realize high virtual desktop consolidation ratio by leveraging the entire memory available with your hardware infrastructure.
The vSphere Desktop edition is intended for customers who want to purchase new vSphere licenses to deploy desktop virtualization. It is already included in the View Bundle – The desktop virtualization product from VMware.
vSphere Desktop is licensed based on the total number of Powered On Desktop Virtual Machines. It is available in a pack size of 100 desktop VM at a license list price of $6500 USD.
vSphere Desktop can be used only for hosting a VDI environment

Also, vSphere Desktop comes with the full range of features and functionalities of vSphere Enterprise+, offering reliability, scalability and optimal performance for all your desktop workloads.
vSphere Desktop is already included in all VMware View bundled SKUs and is not subject to a vRAM limitation.
Benefits of VMware ESXi Hypervisor Architecture
ESXi is our latest hypervisor architecture and it has been optimized for maximum reliability, performance, and ease of management.
It has a compact design, it is the only hypervisor architecture that is OS independent. No service console so all management has to be done outside of the server – better architecture for management, higher reliability b/c of its small attack surface, high performance
It’s simpler to deploy
The hypervisor architecture of VMware vSphere plays a critical role in the management of the virtual infrastructure. The introduction of the bare-metal ESX architecture in 2001 significantly enhanced performance and reliability, which in turn allowed customers to extend the benefits of virtualization to their mission-critical applications. Once again, the introduction of the ESXi architecture represents a similar leap forward in reliability and virtualization management. Less than 5% of the size of ESX, VMware ESXi runs independently of an operating system and improves hypervisor management in the areas of security, deployment and configuration, and ongoing administration.

Improve Reliability and Security.
The older architecture of VMware ESX relies on a Linux-based console operating system (OS) for serviceability and agent-based partner integration. In the new, operating-system independent ESXi architecture, the approximately 2 GB console OS has been removed and the necessary management functionality has been implemented directly in the core kernel. Eliminating the console OS drastically reduces the codebase size of ESXi to approximately 100 MB improving security and reliability by removing the security vulnerabilities associated with a general purpose operating system.

Streamline Deployment and Configuration.
ESXi has far fewer configuration items than ESX, greatly simplifying deployment and configuration and making it easier to maintain consistency.
Reduce Management Overhead.
The API-based partner integration model of ESXi eliminates the need to install and manage third party management agents. You can automate routine tasks by leveraging remote command line scripting environments such as vCLI or PowerCLI.
Simplify Hypervisor Patching and Updating.
Due to its smaller size and fewer components, ESXi requires far fewer patches than ESX, shortening service windows and reducing security vulnerabilities. Over its lifetime, ESXi 3.5 required approximately 10 times fewer patches than ESX 3.5.
vSphere Desktop is available to all commercial, academic, and government customers who want to purchase new licenses of vSphere to host desktop virtualization.
Customers who purchase the VMware View bundles get vSphere Desktop. vSphere Desktop is not subject to any vRAM limitation.
This offer extends only to the purchases of new vSphere licenses. All eligible vSphere 4 (or earlier version of vSphere) licenses used for desktop virtualization will not be upgraded to the vSphere Desktop SKU. These licenses will be migrated to the corresponding vSphere 5 edition and not to vSphere Desktop.
SRM 5 now comes in two editions: Standard and Enterprise. Standard is designed for smaller environments, and can be used to protect up to 75 VMs (per site and per SRM instance). Enterprise is designed for larger environments with more than 75 VMs to protect. Both editions are full-featured and include vSphere Replication, automated failback, and planned migration.
The tiered SRM editions provide a particularly attractive price-point for SMBs and Remote Offices – at $195 per VM. This is a steep reduction from the standard SRM 4 list price of $450 / VM. This more attractive price-point will enable smaller organizations and sites to leverage vSphere Replication and significantly reduce the overall DR costs.
SRM Enterprise is priced at $495 / VM, a very small increment to SRM 4 which now includes vSphere Replication and the other new SRM 5 capabilities.
Existing SRM 4.x and SRM 1.x customer that are current on Support & Subscription are entitled to SRM 5 at no additional cost. Customers will be provided with SRM 5 Enterprise licenses. Per proc customers will receive 5 VMs of SRM 5 Enterprise for each processor license.
