Hypervisor Cluster Profiles

A hypervisor is a software deployed on a server node that creates and runs virtual machines. Hypervisors are clustered to ensure high availability, to optimize resource utilization, and to be fault tolerant. A hypervisor cluster profile enables you to deploy and manage a cluster of hypervisors running on servers managed by HPE OneView and orchestrates a consistent configuration from server nodes to hypervisors in the cluster to share a workload.

A hypervisor cluster profile defines consistent compute, network, and storage configuration for a cluster of hypervisors that will share the same workload. It integrates with the external hypervisor manager software to discover the existing hypervisor clusters and make changes to the hypervisor cluster or the hypervisor configurations. It helps you to manage the configurations on the hypervisors to be consistent with the configurations in the managed server nodes.
