Fault Tolerance - ‘wow’ feature; bad name
Sateesh: it’s like lockstep but done in software, rather than a continuous copy. It will mirror execution, so if your OS on the primary guest crashes, backup will crash the exact same way. The FT solution doesn’t change software reliability (similar to other HW FT solutions, I would imagine). Your HA example is not really apples to apples, as HA loses state whereas FT doesn’t lose any state. You can use VMware Fault Tolerance in conjunction with VMware HA, though.
