How to create a Nested VMware vSAN 6.6 environment.
After many times postponed, this week I start implementing and testing correctly VMware vSAN 6.6 in my home lab. In this case will be the new All-Flash vSAN 6.6.What is VMware vSAN? “VMware vSAN (formerly Virtual SAN), is the industry-leading software powering Hyper-Converged Infrastructure solution. vSAN is a core building block for the Software-Defined Data Center.What
VSAN Encryption: What it is, what it does and how to use it
New to vSphere 6.6, vSAN Encryption uses an XTS AES-256 cipher to encrypt all objects in the vSAN data store across both all-flash and hybrid configurations.

Veeam Backup & Replication is now certified on vSAN
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???
Enhanced resynchronization metrics in vSAN 6.6
