    The document outlines the functionality of various VMware operations with and without a VirtualCenter. It shows that while some basic operations like restarting a VM or host startup continue functioning, most advanced operations like DRS, VMotion, pool operations etc require a VirtualCenter and will not work or be degraded without it. Virtual machines also lose capabilities like migration without a VirtualCenter.
