Abstract
A deployed logical server is created by importing specifications, including a first network identity, of a first real server so that the logical server is stored in a logical-server database. The initially deployed logical server is released from the real server, and a second network identity is assigned to the first real server. The logical server is redeployed on a second real server so that it continues to be associated, in the logical-server database, with the first network identity and respective compute, storage, and network requirements.
