- **Hypervisors**
TODO
A hypervisor, or virtual machine monitor (VMM), is a piece of computer
software, firmware or hardware that creates and runs virtual machines.
In nova, each Host (see `Hosts`) runs a hypervisor. Administrators are able
to query the hypervisor for information, such as all the virtual servers
currently running, as well as detailed info about the hypervisor, such as
CPU, memory, or disk related configuration.
Currently nova-compute also support Ironic and LXC, but they don't have
a hypervisor running.
- **Aggregates**
TODO
Please see :doc:`aggregates.rst`
- **Migrations**
TODO
Migrations are the process where a virtual server is moved from one host to
another. Please see :doc:`server_concepts` for details about
moving servers.
Administrators are able to query the records in database for information
about migrations. For example, they can determine the source and
destination hosts, type of migration, or changes in the server's flavor.
