Enterprise computing is now heavily focused on
enabling you to use your computing resources as efficiently as possible
by extracting the most performance from each of your server’s
resources. Many technologies are available to help you configure HP
enterprise servers to suit almost any need, and to adjust your configuration
as your computing needs change with minimal disruption to your business.
Collectively, these technologies are known as virtualization technologies.
They allow you to group and divide your physical computing resources
to function as customized virtual resources in order to properly size
them for maximum efficiency.
This chapter discusses many of the key virtualization
technologies available with HP-UX, what resources they allow you to
configure, and how they relate to each other.
