VMware HA offers a consistent, cost effective failover protection in case of hardware- and OS failure in a virtualized IT-environment.

Advantages and features:

• virtual machines are monitored constantly to detect OS-and hardware failures in time
• during a server loss the efficient virtual machines will be automatically restarted on another physical server within the resource pool
• for the protection of the application virtual servers will be automatically restarted in case of a failure detection

High Availability enables:

• provision of consistent protection during server and OS Failures for all applications independent from the type of hardware or OS of the virtual machine
• setup of a consistent protection of the entire IT infrastructure
• protection of applications not having an own failover options and high availability for software applications which otherwise would not have protecting functions
