FlexFabric Interconnect enabledvMotion network

• vMotion benefits: dynamic calculation resource allocation, and disaster recovery/service continuity

• vMotion migration is implemented between the VMKernel HBAs of two servers; network is called “vMotion network”

• VM migration must be on the same layer 2 network

• vMotion needs to read the OS image file from the VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) based on the shared storage or synchronous replication volume
