It means your VMs can run on any host and access the files it requires. If
this was not the case then you could not tolerate a hardware failure and
expect your VMs to survive. It also means you can do things like evacuate a
host and take it down for maintenance.
Of course you could build your

It is used as one.It is also a lot more convenient to have a shared
filesystem, than a distributed volume manager.
You could think of VMDK

Hey Phil,
I recently did the VCP certification/course through VMWare however I was
