In this solution, ESX and ESXi hosts are controlled by vCenter (paid version only), which provides
following features:
• Agentless host management (Dell ULNM does not need to be installed on each host)
• No CLI programming, or need for vSphere Management Assistant (vMA)
• Remote graceful shutdown of multiple ESX / ESXi servers and hosted VMs
