Integrated virtualization out of the box
With VMware ESXi 3.5 (formerly known as VMware ESX Server 3i) integrated on the IBM BladeCenter® HS21 XM blade and IBM System x3850 M2 server, you can deploy and manage virtual machines in a matter of minutes.
Highly available infrastructure
VMware ESXi 3.5 operates independently of the operating system to help prevent downtime of virtual servers. The hypervisor is integrated into a USB-based internal flash drive on the server, which also contains optimal memory per processor core and lightning-fast I/O to further enhance infrastructure reliability.
Simplified management
Together with the Common Information Model (CIM), IBM Director provides a single interface to manage and monitor physical and virtual aspects of your IT environment, responding automatically to potential problems through the use of event action plans.
