Hi,
From what I have found you can configure like this:
From the object page select the Add more tab. Under Virtual objects select a
type of VM cluster and type a common name.
Then go to the server object that is acting as the Hypervisor and select the
Properties tab. Change Hypervisor to yes and then click on the paper clip next
to Select container, this will give you a new window where you can select the
VM cluster previously created. Follow this step for each of the Hypervisors in
that cluster. Now the next steps are al little grey to me as I'm not sure if
you should assign the VM to the cluster, the hypervisor it is running on or to
both. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks

Subject: [racktables-users] how to use "Virtual Resources" correctly
Hi,
I'm quite happy with the new feature of documenting virtual resources, but I'm
not sure how to use it correctly.
I'm managing 5 hardware systems running vmware 2, and a big NAS storage behind
that. Our virtual systems (guest systems) are configured in a way that they can
easily be moved between the host systems.
So, how do I correctly use Clusters, Hypervisors, Resource Pools and Virtual
Switches?
Currently, I've set the Hypervisor flag on the 5 host systems, and put them
into a cluster with a virtual name, but I'm not sure if this would make
sense...
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Frank Altpeter
