ClearCube Virtualization Deployment Guide Understanding Virtualization in a ClearCube Environment • 3
Understanding the Virtualization Platforms
ClearCube supports two distinct platforms for virtualization:
• R2200 VM hosts running VMware Infrastruture 3 (includes ESX Server 3.0.1,
VirtualCenter 2.0.1, and VMware Consolidated Backup)
• A1010, R1200, or R1300 VM hosts running VMware Server (formerly GSX)
Both platforms follow a similar architecture that consists of:
• VM host system (such as a ClearCube R2200 Blade and ESX Server software)
• Network-attached data storage system (such as iSCSI or NAS)
• Sentral™ system
Users attach to VMs via Ethernet®. VM hosts provide a virtual router in each host,
and a virtual network interface controller (NIC) for each instantiated VM. Client
systems include:
• ClearCube Windows XPE or NeoLinux I/Ports™ connecting through Remote
Desktop Protocol (RDP) or the Sentral I/Port client
• ClearCube I8330 I/Ports connecting through Ethernet
• Desktop PCs connecting through RDP
Note: You can not use a C/Port™ to connect to a VM, because the C/Port digital link
uses USB redirection, not RDP. You can use C/Ports to manage the R-series
Blades on which the various components are installed, such as the ESX
Server, VMware Server, or a Linux-based NAS server.
