Design of VxRail Stretched Cluster
When you design VxRail Stretched Cluster, network infrastructure is an important factor for its deployment. This section will discuss WTS, which is an optional network configuration. We will discuss VxRail Stretched Cluster with and without WTS. This feature provides a flexible network configuration by separating the network of data nodes into data nodes and then data nodes to witness traffic. All operational tasks of VxRail Stretched Cluster are delivered with a vCenter Server instance; it supports two deployment options. The following sections will discuss the design of WTS and the VMware vCenter Server deployment options.
VxRail Stretched Cluster without WTS
Figure 7.8 shows a standard VxRail Stretched Cluster configuration without WTS. There are four data nodes installed in the preferred and secondary sites. The data nodes are connected through Stretched Layer 2 vSAN Network across the preferred and secondary sites. The vSAN communication...
