Description
Specify a vCenter Server that is
registered as a Web Service
Connection in the Administration
Tab.
Specify the ESX Cluster name.
Specify the ESX host name.
Select this option if you want to
enter Maintenance Mode.
Note: Virtual machines running
on a host entering maintenance
mode need to be migrated to
another host (either manually or
automatically by DRS) or shut
down. The host is in a state of
"Entering Maintenance Mode"
until all running virtual machines
are powered down or migrated to
different hosts.
Specify how long (in seconds) the
service waits before timing out. In
the event of a response timeout,
the service terminates
abnormally.
Select this option if you want to
move powered-off or suspended
virtual machines to another ESX
host when the ESX host enters
Maintenance Mode. You must
select this option if you want to
continue to use these virtual
machines after removing the ESX
host. If you do not select this
option, powered-off and
suspended virtual machines are
not moved to other ESX hosts.
Select this option if you want to
unmount the datastore from the
ESX host before migrating or
shutting down the storage
volume.
