Hi Guys,
vCenter server has a linked mode which from what I understand enables management of the clusters and ESXi devices. I am planning on deployment vmware on one of our remote facilities, however there is limited bandwidth available. Ideally, it wouldn't be more than 4-5 ESXi hosts. My question are:
- What is the expected bandwidth consumption
- Would linked mode give me vSphere redundancy across multiple sites? i.e. if one goes down, the other would just take over.
- Apart from above, is there really a need to use linked mode? Or am I just better oiff running 2 instances of vSphere without them being linked
Regards
Pete
