6.1 Understanding Repositories
Repositories are where VM and template files are stored. A datagrid’s repositories are displayed in
the VM Client in the
Storage view.
If a VM’s files are stored on a particular host server, that VM must be run from that host server. If a
VM’s files are stored on a shared repository, that VM can be run on any host server that has access to
the shared repository.
Host servers can have multiple repositories associated with them, and some repository types can be
associated with multiple host servers as shared repositories. A host server can be associated with
both repositories stored locally on its server and shared repositories stored on other machines.
The default size for all repositories is unlimited. To control disk space usage, you should change this
default in the
Development Client . For more information, see Step 9 on page 122 .
Review the following table for information about the various repository types used by the VM
Client:
