vCenter Server: Simplified and Efficient Server Management. Gain centralized visibility, simplified and efficient management at scale, and extensibility across the hybrid cloud—all from a single console. VMware vCenter Server is advanced server management software that provides a centralized platform for controlling your VMware vSphere environments, allowing you to automate and deliver a virtual infrastructure across the hybrid cloud with confidence.

VMware vCenter Server Features

Simple Deployment
Quickly deploy vCenter Server as a pre-packaged, optimized, and easy-to-maintain virtual appliance. Integration of vSphere Update Manager into vCenter Server Appliance makes patching and upgrading fast and easy. RESTful APIs allow for the easily repeatable deployment of vCenter Server Appliance from a template, speeding up deployment times as well as reducing human error.

Extensibility and Scalability Across Hybrid Cloud
Seamlessly extend your on-premises environment to vSphere-based public clouds, such as VMware Cloud on AWS, no matter which version of vCenter Server you are running. Large-scale management is now improved: Manage up to 2,000 hosts and 35,000 virtual machines with a single vCenter Server instance.

Centralized Control and Visibility
Administer your entire vSphere infrastructure from a single location. The HTML 5-based vSphere Client lets you manage the essential functions of vSphere from any browser, offering more responsiveness and usability than ever before. Assign users to custom roles, search vCenter Server inventory, or provision new virtual machines with the click of a button.

Improved Management
Use powerful tools to simplify management and extend your control. Use web services APIs to achieve cost-effective and flexible integration with existing systems management products. And use different VMware vCenter Server versions while allowing cross-vCenter, mixed-version provisioning operations, such as vMotion, Full Clone, and cold migrate.

Proactive Optimization
Allocate and optimize resources for maximum efficiency with our server management software. Manage up to 70,000 virtual machines and 5,000 hosts across 15 vCenter Server instances. Use vSphere HA and DRS clusters to support up to 64 hosts and 8,000 virtual machines. Replicate roles, permissions, and licenses across the infrastructure so you can simultaneously log in, view, and search the inventories of all vCenter Servers. Link multiple vCenter Server Appliances and increase visibility without using costly load balancers.

Native Elements
Protect the vCenter Server Appliance and related services with native high availability (HA) and a recovery time objective of less than 10 minutes. vSphere provides native active-passive HA capability, certified for vCenter Server Appliance.

Back up your appliance to a set of files while vCenter Server is still up and running with native backup and restore. Restore by simply pointing a fresh appliance to the backup location and files will be downloaded to the new vCenter Server Appliance. No third-party products required.

Schedule your vCenter Server Appliance backups and control the number of backups retained via the native backup scheduler.
VMware vCenter Server 7.0.0a Release Notes - Date: May 19 2020
Resolved Issues This issue is resolved in this release.

vSAN Issues
- vSphere Lifecycle Manager and vSAN File Services cannot be simultaneously enabled on a vSAN cluster
- In vCenter Server 7.0 systems, if vSphere Lifecycle Manager is enabled on a vSAN cluster, vSAN File Services cannot be enabled on the same cluster and vice versa.
- With vCenter Server 7.0.0a, the vSAN File Services and vSphere Lifecycle Manager are interoperable. You can enable both services at the same time.

VMware vSphere with Kubernetes Release Notes - Date: May 19 2020

New Features

Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Service for vSphere: rolling upgrade and services upgrade
- Customers can now perform rolling upgrades over their worker nodes and control plane nodes for the Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Service for vSphere, and upgrade the pvCSI, Calico, and authsvc services. This includes pre-checks and upgrade compatibility for this matrix of services.
- Rolling upgrades can be used to vertically scale worker nodes, i.e. change the VM class of your worker nodes to a smaller or larger size.
Supervisor cluster: new versions of Kubernetes, upgrade supported
- The Supervisor cluster now supports Kubernetes 1.17.4
- The Supervisor cluster now supports upgrading from Kubernetes 1.16.x to 1.17.x

Resolved Issues

Naming conflict for deleted namespaces
- We have resolved an issue where if a user deleted a vSphere namespace, and then created a new vSphere namespace with the same name, we had a naming collision that resulted in being unable to create Tanzu Kubernetes Grid workload clusters.
Improved distribution names
- We have made it clearer what version of Kubernetes you are running by removing OVF versioning information to a separate column.

VMware vCenter Server is the centralized monitoring and resource management software for VMware vSphere virtual infrastructure.

VMware vCenter Server performs a number of tasks, including resource provisioning and allocation, performance monitoring, workflow automation and user privilege management. It enables a vSphere administrator to manage multiple ESX and ESXi servers and virtual machines (VMs) through a single console.

Many key vSphere features, including VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), vSphere High Availability (HA), vSphere Fault Tolerance (FT) and VMware vMotion, require vCenter Server to function.

The vCenter Server architecture consists of three main components: vSphere Web Client, vCenter Server Database and vCenter Single Sign-On.

The vSphere Web Client is a web application that acts as the vCenter Server user interface. It enables the administrator to manage installation and handle inventory objects in a vSphere deployment and provides console access to VMs. VMware introduced a new HTML5-based vSphere Client in vSphere 6.5; the company said it would retire the Flash-based web client in the next numbered version of vSphere.

The vCenter Server Database stores and manages server data, from inventory items to resource pools. Every instance of vCenter Server requires its own unique database. Introduced in vSphere 5.1, vCenter Single Sign-On (SSO) is an authentication broker and security token that enables the user to use one login to access the entire vSphere infrastructure without further authentication.


Important vCenter Server features include the following:


Multi-hypervisor management. VMware vCenter Server offers integrated management for VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V hosts.

VMware Host Profiles. This tool automates ESX and ESXi host configuration. A vSphere administrator can use Host Profiles to create a standard configuration, which serves as a sort of blueprint for all other hosts, and automate compliance to this configuration across all hosts or clusters.

Automatic VM restart. VMware vCenter Server uses vSphere HA to pool VMs and their hosts into a cluster. In the event of a server failure, vSphere HA will automatically restart these VMs on other hosts within the cluster.

Patch management. The vSphere Update Manager(VUM) automatically scans and patches ESXi hosts and certain Microsoft and Linux VMs.

vRealize Orchestrator (vRO). This vCenter Server plug-in, which integrates with vRealize Suite and vCloud Suite, automates tasks using workflows.

vRealize Log Insight for vCenter Server. This log management software has customizable dashboards that enable an administrator to analyze system log data, identify and troubleshoot issues, and check for system compliance.

vCenter Server Linked Mode. This feature provides an administrator with a single view of their vSphere deployment. An administrator can also use Linked Mode to connect multiple vCenter Server systems and grant them permission to share information. Linked Mode automatically replicates all new resources created by the administrator, including roles, policies and permissions, across the linked vCenter Server systems.

Application programming interfaces (APIs). VMware vCenter Server uses APIs to communicate and integrate with third-party software.
Plug-in Extensibility
vSphere Client Plug-ins from VMware partners allow IT admins to manage third-party elements in their data center directly from vCenter Server. Our server management software has the largest partner ecosystem in the industry, with our open vSphere Client Plug-in SDK. As a result, vCenter Server customers can implement back-up, data protection, server management, network management and security management, directly from vCenter Server.

VMware launched the vSphere Client Plug-in Certification Program in 2016 to ensure a better end-user experience for customers. Certified Plug-ins deliver optimal performance, better security model, client isolation against failures in one plug-in, and enhanced vCenter Server Appliance scalability. Customers will be able to distinguish certified vSphere Client Plug-ins because only certified Plug-ins will carry the "VMware-ready" logo.

Certified vSphere Web Client plug-ins:
- Dell EMC OpenManagement Integration for VMware vCenter
- Huawei Technologies Storage NGC (Flex and HTML 5)
- IBM Storage Enhancements for vSphere
- IBM Spectrum Protect vSphere Web Client
- Infinidat Powertools (HTML 5)
