Provide the portability group a name and optional description – the name will be used when
defining logical servers. The set of Group Types is selected automatically based on the targets
inserted into the portability group. Valid combinations of targets include:

A single Virtual Connect Domain Group (VCDG)

A set of ESX Hypervisors

A set of Hyper-V Hypervisors

A set consisting of a single VCDG plus a set of ESX Hypervisors.

Defining cross-technology logical servers

To define a cross-technology logical server, you must place a logical server into a Portability Group,
and then define the storage for that logical server.

Placing a logical server into a Portability Group

Placing a logical server within a portability group is accomplished on the logical server identity
page. This can be done during the creation of the logical server or in a subsequent logical server
modification. You select from the Portability Group drop down list as shown. This list includes both
the default portability groups as well as any user defined portability groups.
