What is a VMware cluster? A VMware cluster consists of several ESXi hosts that are configured so that their resources can be shared. In addition, with clusters, you can use many unique options: vMotion, High Availability (HA), Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), Failover Resilience (FR). ...
VMFS (Virtual Machine File System): ESXi uses a high-performance cluster file system called VMFS, designed for storing virtual machine files. VMFS allows multiple ESXi servers to access the same storage concurrently, which is essential for features like VMotion (the ability to move VMs between ho...
Figure 12 There are some caveats specific to WSFC; the cluster must be across nodes and not in the same node or host unless part of a separate cluster. Virtual hardware must be version 14 or above, NFS vVols are not supported, and the array must support SCSI-3 Persistent Reservation at...
A new table on theCluster Summarypage provides information about the proactive and failure alarms. You can click the triggered entity in the table and view the detail page of that triggered entity. A new table on theCluster Detailpage displays details of the ESX servers that belong to the sel...
VMware vSan is part of VMware's storage virtualization solution. It creates a software interface between VMs and physical storage devices. This software—part of the ESXi hypervisor—represents physical storage devices as a single pool of shared storage accessible by machines in the same cluster. Us...
The vSphere platform also provides vSphere Cluster Services (vCLS), which runs on all vSphereclusters. The solution uses agent VMs to maintain the health of the cluster services and ensure that the cluster can continue its operations if vCenter Server becomes unavailable. It also monitors the reso...

Some Microsoft apps supported out-of-the box are charged extra. Microsoft IIS is considered as a basic monitor. Microsoft Sharepoint, Office 365, Microsoft SQL, Microsoft Biztalk, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Failover Cluster, Microsoft AD are licensed as advanced monitors. ...
The Helm chart adds the Site24x7 Kubernetes Agent to all the nodes in your cluster via a DaemonSet. It also deploys the kube-state-metrics which is used by the Site24x7 Kubernetes Agent, to fetch the performance metrics of your Kubernetes infrastructure and reports it to your account. Sep...
