I was interested in setting up a 2-Node VSAN configuration and as part of the setup, you will also need to deploy the new VSAN Witness Virtual Appliance. The next best thing is using VMware Fusion and Workstation which also supports Nested ESXi and for many of our customers and field, it is a great solution as it allows you to easily play with all the VMware goodies while you are on the go, especially useful if you travel frequently. However, not everyone has access to a vSphere environment. By now, you probably know how easy it is to run Nested ESXi on top of your existing vSphere environment. Like many of you, I am sure you are looking forward to giving both vSphere 6.0 Update 1 as well as the new VSAN 6.1 capabilities a spin in your home lab or development environment.

(Optional) In the Per-VM Overrides pane, configure the startup order and behavior for individual virtual machines.One of the most exciting new feature in VSAN 6.1 is the new Stretched Clustering capability which also provides support for a 2-Node ROBO deployment. If you are interested in learning more about the new VSAN 6.1 capabilities, be sure to check out Duncan's blog post here as well as a video on how to configure the new VSAN Stretched Clustering here.

Select a shutdown action that is applicable to the virtual machines on the host when the host shuts down. The ESXi host shuts down only after all virtual machines are powered off. After the ESXi host powers off the first virtual machine, the host waits for the specified shutdown delay time and then powers off the next virtual machine. The order in which virtual machines are powered off is the reverse of their startup order. When you power off the ESXi host, it starts powering off the virtual machines that run on it. If VMware Tools starts before the specified delay time passes, the ESXi host powers on the next virtual machine without waiting for the delay time to pass. Shortens the startup delay of the virtual machine.

The virtual machines are powered on in the startup order specified in the Per-VM Overrides pane.Ĭontinue immediately if VMware Tools starts After the ESXi host powers on the first virtual machine, the host waits for the specified delay time and then powers on the next virtual machine. SettingĪfter you start the ESXi host, it starts powering on the virtual machines that are configured for automatic startup.
