Tripwire Launches Virtualization Community with VMotion Utility Management Tool

Tripwire launches free OpsCheck tool to manage VMware VMotion, and online community for VI administrators

Tripwire announced a major new initiative for virtual infrastructure (VI) professionals, which includes Tripwire OpsCheck, a free tool to manage VMware VMotion, and an online community for VI administrators. Tripwire OpsCheck assesses common configuration problems that may prevent VMotion from operating properly, and provides troubleshooting tips for configuring VMotion based on Tripwire OpsCheck test results.

To further support the needs of VI professionals, Tripwire has unveiled vWire.com, an online community built around the concerns of VI professionals. Virtualization administrators, engineers and architects are invited to join the community and conversation to share best practices, network, and gain new resources and tools.

Tripwire ConfigCheck, released in 2008, provides an immediate assessment of the configurations of a VMware ESX hypervisor, comparing them against VMware hardening security guidelines, and then providing remediation instructions when needed.
