Abstract
A system and method for automatically consolidating clusters of host computers in a distributed computer system uses a digital representation of a simulated merged cluster of host computers to produce resource management analysis results on the simulated merged cluster of host computers. The simulated merged cluster of host computers is a simulation of a consolidation of first and second clusters of host computers. In addition, the system and method involves executing an automatic consolidation operation on the first and second clusters of host computers to generate a merged cluster of host computers that includes the host computers from both the first and second clusters.
