Someone asked me, “What does this mean?” I thought that might be a good place to start this off. VMware vSAN is one of the very exciting features of VMware vSphere in that it provides software defined storage. The power of this is you can install ESXi and vCenter, and if your hosts have a mix of SSD and HD disks or just SSD, you can enable vSAN with only a few clicks and you then have shared storage among all your hosts. Very different than the traditional process of provisioning storage. Add another host and you get more processor, RAM and storage, too. There is a reason that vSAN is one of the fastest selling products at VMware and that ease of provisioning and managing storage is a big part of it.

Replacing vCenter with vSAN Encryption Enabled

In my previous post, I talked about vSAN Encryption configuration, and key re-generation among other topics. On that post you can see that there is a trust relationship amongst the vCenter and KMS server/cluster. But what happens if my vCenter dies, gets corrupted, or I simply want to build a new vCenter and migrate my vSAN nodes to it with Encryption enabled???
