Appliance Zones are used to isolate traffic. A Management System discovered by an EVM Appliance in a specific zone gets monitored and managed in that zone. All jobs, such as a SmartState Analysis or VM start, dispatched by an EVM Appliance in a specific EVM Zone can get processed by any EVM Appliance assigned to that same zone.
Zones can be created based on your own environment. You can make zones based on geographic location, network location, or function. When first started, a new EVM Server is put into the default zone.
