Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) is a tool for centrally managing virtual machines and virtualization resources.

VMM allows administrators to manage virtual machines and resources across different virtualization platforms, including Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware ESX, and Citrix XenServer.

VMM has three core components: the VMM Management Server, VMM Console, and VMM Local Agent.

The VMM Management Server acts as the central control point for VMM, handling communication between components and managed servers, storing settings in a database, and managing resources for creating virtual machines.

The VMM Console provides a user interface for administrators to perform tasks like managing, creating, and deploying virtual machines, as well as managing host and library servers.

The VMM Local Agent is installed on each host computer managed by VMM, enabling communication between the host and the VMM server.

The library server stores resources like virtual hard disks, ISOs, templates, and profiles used to create virtual machines.

Library shares are standard network shares on the library server, used for storing the resources needed to create virtual machines.

Change the computer name of a cloned virtual machine to avoid conflicts with the original.

A blueprint used to create new virtual machines with predefined settings.

Use the guest OS's shutdown procedure (like Start > Power > Shut down in Windows) to safely power off a virtual machine.

Start the virtual machine and load the guest operating system.

Temporarily suspend a virtual machine without saving its state. Resume to return it to an active state.

Similar to a physical computer's reset button; can cause data loss and should be avoided unless the VM is unresponsive.

Save the virtual machine's current state and memory to a file, powering it off. Restarting will continue from the saved state.

Move a virtual machine to a different storage location on the same host computer.
