Better load balancing when on-prem cluster gets overutilized and note in the UI which tells the problem

Our on-premises virtualization clusters are stretched across two data centers. We aim to keep resource utilization in the clusters below 50% so that in the event of a data center failure, there are still enough resources available for all VMs. To ...

Expand parking functionaly beyond cloud VMs

Parking employs API calls to stop and start VMs running in the cloud. But why limit it to that? Understandably, the functionality was built for that particular and valuable use case, but it would be advantageous to extend that functionality to any...
