External platforms

ARM hosts do not support external platform management.

 

External platform management enables you incorporate host clusters and VMs of VMware, UniCloud, or another CAS system into CAS. Then, you can migrate VMware VMs to CAS without installing any agents or PE tools, making VM migration simpler and faster and service interruption time shorter.

You can back up VMware, UniCloud, and external CAS VMs based on various backup methods and policies.
