A scenario using VxRail Stretched Cluster
This section will discuss a sample configuration of VxRail Stretched Cluster, shown in Figure 7.12. Now, we will discuss VxRail Stretched Cluster with eight nodes, including the requirements, the design of the network configuration, and the VM storage policy configuration. When you design the deployment of VxRail Stretched Cluster, you need to consider all hardware and software requirements; you can refer to the Overview of VxRail Stretched Cluster section in this chapter for more details:
Figure 7.12 – VxRail Stretched Cluster with eight nodes
This configuration is a standard VxRail Stretched Cluster with eight nodes. Table 7.3 shows the hardware configuration of each VxRail node. Each P670F model installed one 800 GB SSD (cache tier), four 7.68 TB SSDs (capacity tier), and one quad-port 10 GB Ethernet adapter:
