The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the plurality of host machines are communicatively coupled via a host bus adapter, the non-transitory computer-readable medium further comprising one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

utilizing a twelve queue depth capacity value for the host bus adapter when the workload application has a high performance requirement.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , further comprising one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

discover the resources available across a rack of host machines,

the discovering performed by a virtual resource manager (VRM) acting as an out-of-band management agent.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the common pool of shared resources is selected from two or more of a group consisting of:

a common pool of shared storage resources,

a common pool of shared memory resources, and

a common pool of shared CPU resources.
