Get a Free Book on Using Hyper-V

Hyper-V book.jpgWho says you can't get something for nothing? If you're willing to register over at NetApp, you can get a free copy of Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V: Insider's Guide to Microsoft's Hypervisor.

This is no mere e-book: It's the actual 384-page print copy from publisher Sybex. It has a cover price of $49.99, though Amazon sells it for $31.49. Either way, you're getting a valuable resource in exchange for a bit of personal/professional information (basically, your name, phone number, e-mail address, and job title).

What's inside? Here's the publisher's description:

Hyper-V is one of the top virtualization products, and this practical guide focuses on the essentials of Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V. Written by the Microsoft team behind the Hyper-V product, this book shows you how to perform key virtualization scenarios, such as server consolidation, software test and development, and a dynamic data center and demonstrates how Hyper-V can be used to reduce cost and eliminate the complexity of a server infrastructure by consolidating workloads to a small number of machines. In addition, the material addresses using DPM, and SCOM with VMM in order to maintain and manage Hyper-V environments.

Suffice it to say, if you or anyone in your department is working with Hyper-V (or planning to), this is a no-brainer: grab a copy while you can. To take advantage of the offer, you must register before Nov. 20. Books will be mailed no later than Nov. 30, according to NetApp.

In the meantime, you can download Chapter 9 immediately upon registering. While you're at it, why not take advantage of these other freebies:

Registration to receive a free copy of the book “Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V: Insider’s Guide to Microsoft’s Hypervisor,” is now officially closed as of November 20, 2009


In reviewing the registrations we had to date, it came to our attention that our flyer offering the book “Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V: Insider’s Guide to Microsoft’s Hypervisor” was posted, without our knowledge or authorization, on the Internet. This resulted in registrations from individuals other than those to whom NetApp distributed the offer, thereby prompting us to close the registration site until we understood the scope of the unauthorized registrations.
