Create a Folder
You can use folders to group objects of the same type for easier management. For example, permissions can
be applied to folders, allowing you to use folders to group objects that should have a common set of
permissions.
A folder can contain other folders, or a group of objects of the same type. For example, a single folder can
contain virtual machines and another folder containing virtual machines, but it cannot contain hosts and a
folder containing virtual machines.
You can create these types of folders: Host and Cluster folders, Network folders, Storage folders, and VM
and Template folders.
Procedure
1 In the navigator, select either a data center or another folder as a parent object for the folder.
