Virtual Machine host counts can vary greatly because of the load factors of VMs on hosts.
The virtual machine guest/host count is limited only by the overall supported limits of
managed systems for HP SIM, Insight Control, and Matrix OE.
Virtual machine hosts

Matrix OE functionality.

Disaster recovery
Example 1
1. 2000 ESX VM-hosted logical servers and 500 VC-hosted logical servers
2. 2200 ESX VM-hosted logical servers and 300 VC-hosted logical servers
3. 2500 ESX VM-hosted logical serves
4. 1500 Hyper-V VM-hosted logical servers
5. 750 Hyper-V IO services each configured with 2 logical servers and 250 VMware
IO services each configured with 2 logical servers, and 500 VC-hosted logical servers
NOTE: Matrix recovery management supports only virtual machines when provisioning
with IO services.
In a Federated Environment, Matrix recovery management is only supported on a
primary-federated CMS at both the primary and DR sites. In other words, Matrix recovery
management is not supported on a secondary-federated CMS. For additional information,
see the HP Matrix Operating Environment Recovery Management User Guide.
