Abstract: Methods and apparatus to deploy workload domains in virtual server racks are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a policy manager to determine an availability option and a performance option of the workload domain based on a domain type and determine capacity options based on a user selection of the availability option and a user selection of the performance option by a first user, a deployment manager to identify first ones of a plurality of computing resources to form a placement solution for the workload domain based on the user selection of the availability and performance options, and based on a user selection of one of the determined capacity options by the first user, the plurality of computing resources stored in a resource database accessible by the first user and a second user, and a resource manager to reserve the first ones of the plurality of computing resources to deploy the workload domain for the first user.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to manage workload domains in virtual server racks are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a policy enforcer to evaluate whether capacities of the plurality of workload domains comply with policy capacity levels of respective user-defined policies for the plurality of workload domains, and a resource manager to, when a first workload domain has a first quantity of resources that exceeds a first policy capacity level of a first user-defined policy, identify a second workload domain requesting a second quantity of resources, when the second quantity of resources is equal to the first quantity of resources, allocate the first quantity of resources from the first workload domain to the second workload domain to satisfy the first policy capacity level, when the second quantity of resources is less than the first quantity of resources, allocate the second quantity of resources from the first workload domain to the second workload domain, and de-allocate remaining resources from the first workload domain to a shared resource pool to satisfy the first policy capacity level.
