One of the key features for virtualization on the T620 is the support for a fail-safe hypervisor. By
running a hypervisor on an optional SD card and installing a backup copy on the other mirrored SD
card, you can protect against hardware failure and maximize virtualization uptime.
Table 25 highlights the virtualization support for the T620.
