Expand the Power of Your PC with Virtualization ¦
¦Discover the true power and flexibility of your desktop or laptop ¦
¦computer with VMware Workstation. Reduce hardware costs by 50% or ¦
¦more by running multiple operating systems simultaneously on a ¦
¦single PC. Automate and streamline tasks to save time and improve ¦
¦productivity. Join the millions worldwide who use Workstation to: ¦
¦ * Host legacy applications and overcome platform migration issues ¦
¦ * Configure & test new software or patches in an isolated ¦
¦environment ¦
¦ * Automate tasks for software development and testing ¦
¦ * Demonstrate multi-tier configurations on a single PC ¦
¦ ¦
¦:::OVERVIEW::: ¦
¦Use Multiple Operating Systems Concurrently on the Same PC: ¦
¦VMware Workstation 6 makes it simple to create and run multiple ¦
¦virtual machines on your desktop or laptop computer. You can ¦
¦convert an existing physical PC into a VMware virtual machine, ¦
¦or create a new virtual machine from scratch. Each virtual ¦
¦machine represents a complete PC, including the processor, memory, ¦
¦network connections and peripheral ports. ¦
¦VMware Workstation lets you use your virtual machines to run ¦
¦Windows, Linux and a host of other operating systems side-by-side ¦
¦on the same computer. You can switch between operating systems ¦
¦instantly with a click of a mouse, share files between virtual ¦
¦machines with drag-and-drop functionality and access all the ¦
¦peripheral devices you rely on. ¦
¦ ¦
¦Take Snapshots & Videos of your Virtual Machines: ¦
¦With Workstation, you can take a ?snapshot? that preserves the ¦
¦state of a virtual machine so you can return to it at any time. ¦
¦Snapshots are useful when you need to revert your virtual machine ¦
¦to a prior, stable system state. Workstation displays thumbnails ¦
¦of all your snapshots on a single screen, making it easy for you ¦
¦to track and revert to a previously saved snapshot. ¦
¦You can even use Workstation 6 to record and play video files that ¦
¦capture all changes to a virtual machine over a period of time. ¦
¦This function is exclusive to VMware Workstation and is incredibly ¦
¦useful for software debugging, Help Desk forensics, sales demons- ¦
¦trations and training. ¦
¦ ¦
¦Run an Entire Multi-tier System on a Single Host Computer: ¦
¦Run multi-tier enterprise applications on a single piece of ¦
¦hardware by managing network-connected virtual machines with the ¦
¦Teams feature of Workstation 6. Teams let you create virtual ¦
¦network environments that include client, server and database ¦
¦virtual machines. ¦
¦With Workstation Teams, you can turn an entire multi-tier ¦
¦environment on and off with a single click of the mouse button. ¦
¦Workstation displays live thumbnails of all connected virtual ¦
¦machines, enabling you to easily identify and switch between the ¦
¦virtual machines associated with a team. ¦
¦ ¦
¦Clone your Virtual Machines to Accelerate Deployment: ¦
¦Installing operating systems and applications can be time consuming. ¦
¦With clones, you can make many copies of a virtual machine from a ¦
¦single installation and configuration process. This capability makes ¦
¦it fast and simple to distribute standardized computing environments ¦
¦to employees and students, or to create a baseline configuration for ¦
¦testing. ¦
¦ ¦
¦Take Your Virtual Machines With You: ¦
¦New to Workstation 6 is the ability to create and deploy secure ¦
¦virtual machines (called ACEs) with the ACE Option Pack. Mobility ¦
¦is one of the primary benefits of this option pack, as it enables ¦
¦users to securely take their desktops with them on portable media ¦
¦devices such as USB thumb drives.
