Figure 13. Datastore Shared Among ESX Hosts

Shared and Separated Datastores

Even if the destination datastore is not the same as the source datastore (as seen in Figure 14), the process to

clone VMs can still be optimized. In this case, VM files are copied directly between datastores and the

requirement to have the cell as the middle tier for buffering the OVF package is eliminated.
