5.5.9 Examples of hardware configurations (using SCSI reservation for shared disk and PC/AT-compatible systems from another company)

This subsection shows examples of hardware configurations with different hot-standby configurations when SCSI reservation for shared disk is used with PC/AT-compatible systems from another company. These examples assume the use of PC/AT-compatible systems from another company.

(5) VMware ESXi-based or KVM-based virtualization configuration

The following figure shows an example of a hardware configuration that uses a VMware ESXi-based or KVM-based virtualization configuration. In the case of a KVM-based configuration, virtual machines in the figure change to guest OSs.
