Farm
A Farm (or cluster) is a group of Hypervisors pooled together and sharing storage resources to provide an overall fault tolerant system for hosting Virtual Machines.

Creating a new Farm
Click on the “Overview” menu:
And click on “Create a new Farm” in the dashboard:
To display the following form:
Relations
- Impacts: a Farm impacts its Virtual Machines, the Application Solutions which this Farm is part of and all the contacts (Persons, Teams) directly linked to the Farm.
- Depends on: a Farm depends on the related Hypervisors and Logical Volumes.
Hypervisor
An hypervisor is a virtualization software (MS Hyper-V, VMWare ESX, Xen, etc.), running on a physical Server and supporting the creation of Virtual Machines.
