Managed Object Description
Controls Enhanced vMotion Compatibility mode for a particular cluster given by ManagedCluster. VMware Enhanced vMotion Compatibility (EVC) facilitates vMotion between different CPU generations through the use of Intel Flex Migration and AMD-V Extended Migration technologies. When enabled for a cluster, EVC ensures that all VMs are vMotion-compatible with the CPUs of all hosts in the cluster.See EVCMode
