This video provides an overview of the new PSC and how it changes everything in regard to licensing, certificates, Linked Mode, and so on.
- [Instructor] One of the manageability enhancements…starting with vSphere 6.0,…not with 6.5 but 6.0,…was the introduction of the Platform Services Controller.…The Platform Services Controller has to be installed first.…If you start to do an installation of a vCenter Server,…the first thing it's going to ask you for is…Where's my Platform Services Controller?…Give me an IP address or a fully qualified…main name for my Platform Services Controller.…
So it's an extremely important component.…If you do an embedded installation, then…the embedded installation, which includes the…Platform Services Controller and the vCenter Server,…starts off with the Platform Services Controller.…So what's so great about the Platform Services Controller?…Well think about the name.…It's the platform for all of the services.…So what are the services that are so important here?…Well there's Certificate management, there's…Licensing management, there's the Single Sign-On…system, and there's Identity management.…
And it always contains all of these.…
