Server Virtualization is the process of presenting a logical grouping or subset of computing resources so that they can be accessed in ways that give benefits over the original configuration. This new virtual view of the resources is not restricted by the implementation, geographic location or the physical configuration of underlying resources. Commonly virtualized resources include computing power and data storage. |

Consolidation is a common trend in many IT environments, providing benefits such as improved hardware resource utilization, easier management, and lower costs. For storage, consolidation is accomplished by moving data off of direct attached storage (DAS) inside the server onto a shared pool of storage in a storage area network (SAN).

Historically, the adoption of storage virtualization technologies in SAN environments has been limited, primarily to enterprise data centers needing a tool for online data migration between heterogeneous storage environments. However, this is no longer the case and virtualized iSCSI SANs make it drastically easier to deploy, manage and build a virtualized enterprise storage infrastructure.

To derive maximal benefit from system virtualization, storage virtualization, as implemented in a SAN, is a necessary prerequisite. The mobility of a virtual machine (VM) and its data plays an important role in daily operational tasks from load balancing with VMotion™ and VMware Distributed Resource Manager (DRS) to system testing. The issues of availability and mobility really rise to the forefront in a disaster recovery scenario.
