VMworld 2012: Session BCA1311 – Virtualizing SAP: Design and Performance Management Guideline

The "how" will be covered in this session which will include: design practices used in architecting virtual SAP deployments; memory management of virtual SAP (comparing ESX memory counters with SAP counters) ; impact of hyperthreading (all recent SAP on vSphere 5 benchmarks have hyperthreading enabled).
