STORAGE

Discover, classify, and allocate storage for use by the private cloud. Provide the correct storage for use with appropriate access.

COMPUTE

Deploy your compute resources, taking them from bare metal to fully deployed for your physical and virtualization hosts.

NETWORK

Abstract your complex networking infrastructure into logical networks for cloud use. Assign IP, virtual IP, and MAC addresses from pools and integrate with load balancers.

CLUSTER

Consolidate your fabric elements for use in a private cloud.

CLUSTER

SP1 : Cluster

Manage “Possible/Preferred Owner” settings

Supports CSV2, 64 cluster nodes, 8000 VM’s/cluster, 1024 VM’s/node

Availability Sets (anti-affinity) Ensures VMs are placed on different hosts for VM and

Service continuity per policy Works even for stand alone hosts Leverages “AntiAffinityClassNames” property for Windows

Server 2008 R2 & Windows Server 2012 failover clusters
