A: Generally VMware provides three different types of server software

• VMware ESX Server
• VMware ESXi Server
• VMware Server

A: Different components which are used in VMware are listed below:- 

• It generally consists of the lowest layer which acts as an ESX server host
• It also uses the virtual center server which keeps track of all the VM-associated images and manages them from one point
• VMware infrastructure client, enables the Client to communicate with user's applications that are running on VMware
• Web-browser are generally used to access the virtual machines
• The license server is used to prepare a server that provides licensing to the applications
• Database servers are availed to maintain a database

A: VMware High Availability has a mechanism to find a host isolated from the rest of the hosts in the cluster. In other words, it generally uses a heartbeat to communicate with another host in the cluster. When the host loses its ability to connect with others in a cluster through heartbeat, the host will be considered a Host Isolation.

A: The communication between two ESXi hosts is known as Fault logging when FT is configured between them.

A: A sizable in-house staff of qualified trainers and consultants with a solid educational foundation and practical knowledge in the technology is available at Radiant Techlearning.
