RapidApp's Quick Start guide to ESX 3.0
At VMworld 2006, one of the hottest items on the expo floor was a little booklet that RapidApp was giving away at their booth. It's now available in electronic or dead tree version. Link: RapidApp's Quick Start guide to ESX 3.0
VMTN Forums regular Jason Boche gives it two thumbs up:
This book is a fantastic resource for those with moderate to expert experience (the more, the better) with VMware VirtualCenter 1.x and VMware ESX 1.x/2.x. I planned much of our corporate VI3 implementation based on this book. The Quick Start Guide is not a replacement for all of the VMware .PDF documentation of which there is easily over 500 pages, maybe over 700. This book is also not an Advanced Technical Design Guide. It’s a quick and dirty substitute boiled down to 171 pages for those who can hit the ground running with VMware, and it will fit in your back pocket. As with any first edition, I cannot say this book is without some spelling/grammar mistakes and more importantly a few technical inaccuracies, but they are few and far between and I look forward to them being corrected in the 2nd edition. I obtained a copy of this book at VMworld 2006 but that copy is nearly worn out so I purchased an additional copy. I highly recommend this book. Two thumbs up!
