DC Virtual Machines
DC2Virtual Machines
DC Virtual Machines run on clusters of replicated, hyperconverged nodes — so any VM can restart automatically on a healthy host if hardware fails, and live-migrate with zero downtime for maintenance. Size VMs from 2 vCPU / 4 GB to 64 vCPU / 512 GB, hot-add CPU and memory without reboots, and manage everything from the console or the REST API.
Key Features
Windows Server, Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky, AlmaLinux, and RHEL images — plus custom image import (QCOW2, VMDK, OVA)
Hot-add CPU and memory on supported guest operating systems without a reboot
High availability restarts VMs on healthy nodes within minutes of a host failure
Live migration moves running VMs between hosts with zero downtime
Browser-based VNC console that works even when the guest network is down
How It Works
Choose image and size
Pick a Windows or Linux image and a profile from 2 vCPU / 4 GB up to 64 vCPU / 512 GB — or a custom size in between.
Configure networking & security
Place the VM in a DC Virtual Network subnet, attach security groups, and optionally bind an elastic IP.
Launch & connect
The VM boots in under a minute. Connect via SSH (Linux), RDP (Windows), or the built-in browser console.
Operate with confidence
Hot-add CPU and memory without reboots, snapshot before risky changes, and let HA restart the VM on a healthy node if its host ever fails.
