Massive scalability with support for 64 physical nodes & 8,000 VMs. Cluster physical servers (host clusters), virtual machines (guest cluster), and SMB Scale Out File Servers (storage cluster). Built-in hardware and software validation tests to ensure compliance and to offer guidance to fix misconfigurations. Redundant networks and teamed NICs supporting IPv4 and/or IPv6. Shared storage using SMB, iSCSI, Fibre Channel, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) or SerialAttached SCSI (SAS).
Failover Clustering
Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV) is a distributedaccess file system allowing multiple VMs to write to the same disk.
Cluster Communication
If a node fails or is partitioned, the health check fails, and failover actions take place.
The VMs or roles will restart on another node, reading the applications data from the shared disk.
Cluster Networking
Anti-Affinity keeps related VMs apart Upon failover, VMs restart priority order Hyper-V cluster with VMs in on each node
Resources looks at CPU, Memory, Disk IO and Network IO - when the resource usage goes above the DO threshold, VMM orchestrates live migrations of VMs
User Controlled configurable frequency, and aggression level. Can be manually triggered, of enabled for automatic optimization
