VDCF - main benefits
Simplicity
Deploy and manage Virtual Solaris Environments without a deep Solaris knowledge using only a handful of intuitive VDCF commands
Standardization
Zones and LDoms are deployed using supported Solaris technologies, managed in a standard way and able to be deployed and available for use in minutes rather than hours.
Availability / Recovery
VDCF allows manual or automatic control of server migration or fail-over leading to improved options in availability, disaster recovery and performance.
