Invirtus updated its famous virtual machines compressor VM Optimizer, introducing several new features:
- Setting manager
Settings Manager is an innovative supplemental application for Corporate Edition owners that allows you to create an XML based configuration file that VM Optimizer uses at run-time.
Create a different settings file for each user type (developer, IT Admin, test), each OS type, etc.
Deploy settings on the network and run VM Optimizer against centralized settings - Freespace
FreeSpace is an included application that integrates into the optimization process and goes sector by sector on your virtual disk thoroughly zeroing out unused space. - NullBoot
NullBoot is our proprietary technology for implementing live core OS configuration and not requiring a reboot.
You simply mount the ISO file and your complete customized optimization takes place without intervention - VMShrink
We’ve written an application that integrates seamlessly with your VMware platform software and carries out the vmdk shrinking for you with zero intervention. No more having to mount your vmdk with tools and performing command line switches.
