Very Good,

This review is from: Administering VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0 (VMware Press Technology) (Kindle Edition)
A very good book which contains some excellent advice on how to configure this product. My only gripe is that best practice recommendations are not highlighted or bulleted.It also details how to configure storage using different storage platforms such as Dell Netapp and EMC If you are going to deploy SRM 5 then get this book

Administering VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0 - Great new VM protection capabilities,
By Rodolfo Torres - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Administering VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0 (Vmware Press) (Paperback)
The 'Administering VMWare Site Recovery Manager 5.0' book by Mike Laverick is written in a casual, yet concise manner. The easy to follow examples and screenshots make it easy to understand the new 5.0 capabilities, which augment VMWare SRM security and protection: vSphere Replication, Planned Migration, Automated Re-Protection, Automated Failback, & Enhanced Dependency Definition combine for a one two punch to keep your VM environment well protected. An out of the box, hands-on admin guide, SRM5.0 makes implementation of a Disaster Recovery process easy and smoothe. Great guidebook!

A great resource written in a conversational tone,
By Chris Wahl - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Administering VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0 (Vmware Press) (Paperback)
This book is a treasure trove of experience from Mike Laverick covering VMware's SRM 5. The writing style is very human and conversational, with plenty of little anecdotes and personal experiences to be found, which greatly facilitates the desire to absorb this book cover to cover. The material covers many different vendor products that are used with SRM, along with detailed visuals (screenshots and the like) to assist the reader in understanding how they work. Even if you're not currently purchasing or using SRM, I would recommend this book as a good way to remove the FUD around disaster recovery in a VMware environment and get a better perspective on your options to protect your VMs.
