vJailbreak

The new vJailbreak release brings control and automation to migration, with the only end-to-end in-place migration available. In-place migration not only migrates our VMs, but converts your ESXi servers to Private Cloud Director servers without having to allocate temporary space or suffer from extended downtime and business disruption. It’s more than a VMware exit; it’s moving your virtual infrastructure to a modern platform. This release of vJailbreak includes:

• In-place Cluster Conversions
• Warm Migrations
• Fine-Grained Control
