Clive Watson has been testing the new System Center Virtual Machine Manager Beta 1 and he has posted some articles about it on his Weblog. All of these parts together end up being a very nice user guide for this version of SCVMM:
Part 1: IntroductionPart 2: Host Groups and Self-Service policiesPart 3: Views for Hosts and Virtual MachinesPart 4: Adding a new HostPart 5: Filtering viewsPart 6: Host’s Managed PropertiesPart 7: PowerShellPart 8: PowerShell (cont’d)Part 9: How to create a Virtual MachineExtra: Can you help the help?Part 10: Remote controlExtra: Summary and DiagramPart 11: Template and ProfilesExtra: SCVMM Self-Service FAQ update
Since this is a Beta 1 version there is not a lot of documentation for you to start playing with it. Clive Watson has done a very good job on this, it’s really helpful and it can lead to a better testing of the product.
