How We Started this Virtual Reality…
• Our Initial build• Our Current build• Foresight is always key• Key Components

Keys to A Successful Virtualization Project
1. Policy Guidelines2. Automate3. Monitoring4. Compliance5. Goals
![Page 6: History of our Virtualization Project Discussion Points 1.How we started 2.Foundations of a Virtualization Project 3.Physical to Virtual 4.ELA 5.Lessons](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f125503460f94c25d92/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
BEST PRACTICESTo mention just a few….
1. DO NOT severely over commit on memory or CPU.2. Do not use multiple CPU’s if application is single
threaded3. HA-DRS clustering4. Snapshot – Don’t be confused by the name5. Always monitor your environment proactively.6. Always keep your templates updated.

Physical to Virtual
• Successfully implementing a P2V standard.• Developing a Methodology• Top Hurdles to overcome with a P2V project
![Page 8: History of our Virtualization Project Discussion Points 1.How we started 2.Foundations of a Virtualization Project 3.Physical to Virtual 4.ELA 5.Lessons](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f125503460f94c25d92/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

P2V Methodology
• Goals of the P2V methodology Eliminate risk to environment throughout the duration of the project Minimize downtime of applications during migrations Seamless coordination of resources during the migrations
Enterprise Communications Management
Project and Work-Stream Management

TOP 8 Hurdles with large P2V projects
1 Overall Coordination & Communication
2 Scheduling Tasks on Production systems
3 Managing Approvals
4 Task Distribution
5 Off hours and weekend work
6 Data Gathering and Maintenance
7 Tracking Status
8 Reporting
