Managing Hosts in vCenter Server
7
To access the full capabilities of your hosts and to simplify the management of multiple hosts, you should
connect your hosts to a vCenter Server system.
For information on configuration management of ESX/ESXi hosts, see the ESX Configuration Guide or ESXi
Configuration Guide.
The views and capabilities displayed vary depending on whether the vSphere Client is connected to a vCenter
Server system or an ESX/ESXi host. Unless indicated, the process, task, or description applies to all kinds of
vSphere Client connections.

About Hosts
A host is a virtualization platform that supports virtual machines. A vCenter Server managed host is a host
that is registered with vCenter Server.
The task of managing a host is accomplished through the vSphere Client. This vSphere Client can be connected
either directly to an ESX/ESXi host or indirectly to hosts through a connection to a vCenter Server system.
When ESX/ESXi hosts are connected to the vSphere Client directly, you manage them individually as
standalone hosts. Most of the host configuration and virtual machine configuration features still apply.
Features that require multiple hosts, such as migration with VMotion of a virtual machine from one host to
another, are not available through the standalone host connection.
