📄️ Overview
Affinity Groups in the Cloud Management Portal enable users to manage the physical distribution of their instances across hypervisor hosts. These groups ensure that instances are either co-located on the same host (Affinity) or distributed across different hosts (Anti-Affinity) according to application workload requirements.
📄️ Create an Affinity Group
The Affinity Group feature allows users to define placement rules for virtual machines (VMs) within their cloud infrastructure. Affinity groups help ensure that VMs are either placed together (affinity) or kept on separate hosts (anti-affinity), based on your specific workload, performance, and redundancy requirements.
📄️ Assign an Affinity Group
The Affinity Group Assignment feature allows users to apply specific placement policies to running virtual machines (VMs) to control where they are hosted within the cloud environment. This is crucial for ensuring optimized workload distribution, enhanced fault tolerance, or improved performance depending on your deployment strategy.
📄️ Delete an Affinity Group
The Affinity Group Deletion functionality allows you to remove unused or outdated affinity groups from your cloud environment, helping you maintain a clean and organized resource structure.
