There are several deployment management issues that are related to Virtual Iron like:

• Server consolidation: is an issue as it doesn't allow high level of consolidation to be done with the virtualization platform.

• Server load balancing: is an issue as it allows only few load on the server be balanced and doesn't allow the hardware to be allocated to many resources.

• Dynamic capacity management: it is an issue as it allows only low level of dynamic capacity management and doesn't allow the scaling to be possible.

• Disaster recovery: it performs low level of disaster recovery and most of the time the whole system has to be recovered by this way.
