MMS2008 - Tuesday 1
Keynote. Dynamic Datacenter. There was a demo of task sequencer & custom tasks for deploying servers & their roles (like AD, HyperV enabled).
A couple of announcements, Virtual Machine Manager 2008 Beta, which will watch/manage ESX/Vmware as wall as VMMs; and that it's all powershell scripts on the backend. Also the Beta of Cross Platform Extensions for OpsMan available today. They had DVDs to hand out; so I wasn't clear if the download is available today already or not. These Cross Platforms extensions demo illustrated managing a unix system (troubleshooting and fixing) from within OpsMan, without having to shell out to your unix box.
