VMCL is the first free high availability
software for VMware environment.
It manages virtual machines failover when a physical host crashes
VMCL has a feature actually not available in any other commercial
product: it decides which available physical host has to start faulty
virtual machines depending on specific parameters (free memory, CPU
usage) to be respected and considering a defined priority (note: not yet
implemented).
The whole thing is based on some file present inside one of shared vmfs
volumes
When a physical host is faulty VMCL will decide which remained
physical host has to mount faulted host quorum and to start which
virtual machine.
