Working with systems
Systems can represent physical hardware, Virtual Machines (VM), or Virtual Machine Hosts . They
can be real systems from your current environment or “What-If” creations to represent new systems
you are planning to acquire. You can also modify a system based on an existing system to represent
planned configuration changes.
