Cloud Mobility for Dell PowerMax is configured within an embedded guest running on the PowerMaxOS hypervisor. Management of Cloud Mobility is performed using the Embedded Management (eManagement) Unisphere for PowerMax. Communication between the embedded Unisphere and Cloud Mobility is through REST API over a PowerMax internal private network connection.
More details about the PowerMax hypervisor that also powers Embedded Management, Embedded NAS, and the new Embedded VASA provider are in Appendix A: PowerMax hypervisor architecture.
A single dedicated 4-port 10 Gb Ethernet I/O module is connected to the Cloud Mobility guest to provide external IP connectivity to the cloud providers. To provide resiliency, it is recommended to configure these ports as individual ports or as teams.
