Requirements and Limitation

Virtual machine cannot include snapshots

Disk must be in persistent mode or use raw device maps

Host must have enough resources to support two instance of VM

Host must have VMotion license and configuration

Host must have access to both source and target datastores

Only one migration per datastore at any one time

Transform how we think about IT: in the datacenter, in the cloud, in the desktop

It is not about individual hypervisors; it is about a new class of software for

building the 100% virtual private cloud

The impact to businesses will be considerable: spend money and resources on strategic differentiation
