The Power of “And” Documentum and VMware together: Can Speed Up Your Deployment Can Reduce the Time and Cost of Your Deployment We Know This From First Hand Experience eRoom Product Operations • 30 images on one box! Webtop, Server Product Operations • Regression Test Cycle Shortened 67% Sales Demo Hosted Solution • Saved nearly $1000000 “Lab In a Box”

Lab In a Box Objective: Create lab for complex 3 tier networked application Replicable amongst many users in many geographies Component swapability to physical counterpart Challenges Configuration State • Machine Names/IP addresses • User Names and Passwords Networks • Windows Network Namespace (duplication) • Test environment isolation

Lab In a Box Partitioning Domain Controller WebServer Content Server Database LoadRunner

Templates Hosted on NFS Populated with diagnostic tools. Scripted to join the domain when cloned.

Lab In a Box Networking Lab networks are virtual Gateways are mulithomed Labs do not interfere with each other VPN is used for access into the lab(s).

Lab In a Box Advantages Replicability OS Updates are managed on the templates Well known configurations lowers learning curve “Interesting” situations can be saved for later examination • Machine Resources are not tied up • Developers can investigate when time permits • Multiple people can collaborate and trouble shoot issues An alternative to the “Pottery Barn” model

“It’s all bits”
