Q

vShield Endpoint

A

Allows for the offloading of antivirus and antimalware functions to a virtual appliance that acts as a “bastion host” between the VMs and the data. The virtual
appliance is the only component that receives antivirus and antimalware updates, thereby eliminating “antivirus storms” associated with all VMs updating at once.

Standard, Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

Q

Virtual Volumes

A

A new integration and management framework that virtualizes SAN/NAS arrays and provides for a more efficient storage model that is optimized for virtual environments. New shared data storage can be automatically created when needed, eliminating the “guessing game” typically associated with traditional logical unit numbers (LUNs).

Redirects serial ports of VMs so that management traffic is only on the management network, providing a more secure way to manage VMs remotely.

Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

17
Q

DRS and DPM

A

Automatically balances VM loads across hosts, optimizing efficiency and power management.

Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

18
Q

Storage DRS

A

Provides for more effective balancing of VMs using automated load balancing across datastores in datastore clusters.

Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

19
Q

Storage I/O Control

A

Continuously monitors I/O load of storage volumes and dynamically allocates available I/O resources based on administrator settings for specific business needs.

Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

20
Q

Network I/O Control

A

Prioritizes network access by continuously monitoring I/O load over the network and dynamically allocating available I/O resources to administrator specified flows to support business needs.

Enterprise and Enterprise Plus.

21
Q

Single Root I/O Virtualization

A

Allows one PCI Express (PCIe) adapter to be presented as multiple separate logical devices to the virtual machines. Provides users with the capability to offload I/O processing and reduce network latency.
