Hi,
Well I dont see why this is desirable, from any other perspective
than a demo environment. The advantage ofcourse is that you dont
have to use any
other server or switch as the DCHP server.
In a Real Environment though , you almost always have a company wide
DHCP service . And deploying the solaris DCHP as well will only be
a pain in the neck.
What we did was deploying a VLAN in the Cisco stack and a
corresponding PortGroup in Vmware ESX where all the Virtual WinXP
desktops are
attached to the network. The DHCP server is the ISC DHCP server
running on LINUX, where a DHCP scope is available for the VLAN.
The VLAN is not isolated but reaches the company internet gateway
through the CISCO stack and the firewalls .
The Sun ray Servers are also connected to the same VLAN with one I/F,
and to the normal server VLAN with another I/F.
To have a Isolated Network for the virtual Windows desktops also
isolates them form all the services the WinXP desktops need to use
which is not what you want. It does however produce a neat demo
environmnet.

*Hi all,*
Kindly advise me on this
I know that with vdi 2.0 we used to create a private network as I have
quoted from a cookbook by /Dirk Grobler, November 2007 (Updated March
2008)/
The second virtual network is private to the VMware ESX server and is
not connected to a physical network. It connects the Sun VDI Software
with all the virtual desktops. The Sun VDI Software, or more
specifically, the Sun Ray Server component, is configured as the
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server for this private
network. The VMware VirtualCenter is also connected to this private
network. This network handles the virtual desktop lookup process on
behalf of the user and the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) communication
between the Sun VDI server and the virtual desktops.
Is this still done when deploying desktops with vdi 3.1
Any assistance will highly be appreciated.
Cheers
James
