Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

In my many conversations with customers I hear the same feedback over and over: Customers spend too much money on ROBO solutions. Customers do not have infrastructure staff on site Customers don’t run enough compute to justify large amounts of infrastructure Customers typical scale storage capacity on site, rather than compute and performance. In VSAN 6.1 we are removing the requirement for 3 physical VSAN Nodes. By placing the witness VM offsite in the customers central datacenter or even vCloud Air this will allow the customer to deploy only 2 physical nodes on site.

How many Fault Domains?

How many Fault Domains?

How many Fault Domains?

Some weeks ago I was involved in a discussion with a customer on their design around fault domains. There was an interesting scenario which was proposed and I was asked for my opinion or validation of the aproach. Before I talk about the solution let me re-cap what Fault Domains in VSAN are. The default storage policy in VSAN is to maintain 2 equal copies of a data object and 1 witness of metadata object, we call this Failures to Tolerate = 1. Traditionally, these objects would be automatically distributed across a separate host in the cluster allowing for the loss of 1 host, disk or other component in the cluster. This loss would only result in the VM’s compliance being negatively reported until the rebuild operation has completed and…Read More
