Hi,

Why Power Off Virtuals machines do not migrate when Host goes down ?

RDPetruska · ‎02-25-2009

Perhaps because there is no such functionality in the hosted products like VMware Server 2 to do so? Only in the VI products - ESX, ESXi - when managed by VirtualCenter.

I agree with . This is not a feature of VMware Server (free product). Certain features would need to be paid (ESX with vCenter).

What version of ESX are you using, so we can move this thread to the appropriate forum?

Did u find any HA errors, if yes, can u post ir

I moved your topic to the correct sub forum.

And with ESX 3.5 U2 they should be moved to a new server all they will not be powered on.
