A resource pool is a collection of physical servers, VM hosts, storage, networks, images, and other resources of the same type.
The resource pool management function allows you to effectively and efficiently use all resources.
Until now, launching or expanding business operations required the purchase of servers, storage, networks, and other resources. Furthermore, significant time and effort was spent preparing and organizing such operations.
When the resource pool is used, the time and trouble of request for decision, arrangements, and environmental construction, etc. that were necessary in each system becomes unnecessary because it can construct the server (Storage and the network are included) only with cutting out an appropriate resource from the resource pool by registering in the resource pool beforehand as the resource to control a necessary resource with this product according to the user's demand. Construction and the operation of a premeditated infrastructure environment can be achieved. Moreover, it is possible to prepare for recycling by liberating the resource when the server becomes unnecessary.
The types of resource pools are as described in "6.4 Resource Pool Types". For details, refer to "Chapter 20 Resource Pool Operations" of the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
Multiple resource pools can be created depending on operational requirements (hardware type, security, resource management units). If the resources in a resource pool are insufficient, a new resource can be added or a resource can be moved from another resource pool to compensate.
