3. Once that part is completed then the user can deploy the virtualization
software to create a partition of the server. Any software such as Microsoft
Hyper V or VMware etc. The selection of the software depends on the
server and it is physical (hardware) configuration

4. Once the partitioning or rather the virtualization is completed then the
server needs to be monitored again for the resource usage and performance
after the migration.

Usage of Server Virtualization

The various usage of the server virtualization are as follows:

1. Consolidating the Physical Server

 Virtualization for the server helps in consolidating the server which
means 1 single physical server can act as multiple servers due to
partitioning and each partition can carter multiple clients with different
needs.
 So, to maintain the hardware of the 1 physical server the company will
not require much cost, compared to that of multiple servers.
 So basically, it helps in cost-cutting and proper management of the IT
infrastructure
