The VMware vCenter ServerTM Plugin for Virtensys allows administrators to easily add or remove shared I/O resources (vAdapters) to their VMware vSphere server hosts.
Centralized management means administrators can manage multiple VIO-4000 appliances, regardless of model type or quantity from a single interface, and stays within the native management context of VMware’s vCenter Server.
Advanced policies can also be created and applied to virtual interface to guarantee quality of service (QoS) for critical shared resources.
In addition, administrators have the ability to monitor how virtualized I/O resources are being utilized and view their “physical to virtual” mappings.
