Transferring units to a zone
You can transfer managed appliances, blade chassis, hypervisor managers or hypervisor servers
to zones for which you have access rights. All associated target devices are transferred with the
unit, and any merged target device connections are split. You cannot independently move a
target device.
NOTE: If you are transferring units that require licenses, such as a VMware ESX Server, the zone to which you are
moving the units must be assigned the appropriate licenses (see Assigning zone licenses on page 252). If the zone
does not have sufficient licenses, the transfer fails.

checkbox next to the unit(s) you wish to move.

You can access the units and associated target devices when you are active in the zone that
