Performing Operations on Virtual Hosts

Deactivating (OS Shutdown) Virtual Elements
You deactivate a virtual host and shut down the operating system running on the virtual
system.
Deactivating (Power Off) Virtual Elements
You stop SAP instances running on the virtual host and disconnect the virtual systems
from the power supply.
Migrating Virtual Elements
You migrate virtual hosts from one virtual host provider to another, or from one
operating system resource pool to another.
Suspending Virtual Elements
You stop and unprepare all instances running on a virtual system or host as well as all
dependent instances and stop the virtual host.
