Raw Device Mappings tend to show up in the places where infrastructure history is still attached to the workload. A database server was moved from physical hardware years ago. A file server needed a very large LUN before VMDK limits improved. A clustered application depended on shared storage. A storage team wanted array-level tooling to […]

Done — I removed the extra line breaks/page-break-style spacing. The only preserved line breaks are inside the ASCII workflow and PowerCLI script so they remain usable. Why Large VM vMotion and Clone Tasks Fail: Device Limits, Config Hygiene, and PowerCLI Prechecks Large VM migrations usually fail at the worst possible time: late in the change
