Imagine this, you’ve been tasked with implementing micro-segmentation in your vSphere environment. You just deployed and configured NSX-T and the next step is to migrate VMs from their VDS port groups to N-VDS segments. You fire up the vSphere Client and expand the VDS to have a look at the current situation: It’s pretty bad.…

Welcome back! I’m in the process of setting up NSX-T in a stretched cluster environment. In part 1 I deployed the NSX manager cluster and configured the ESXi hosts as NSX transport nodes. The N-VDS was installed on the ESXi hosts and their vmkernel adapters migrated from the VDS to the N-VDS. In this second…
A stretched cluster architecture facilitates for higher levels of availability and things like inter-site load balancing. It’s a common multisite solution and also part of VMware’s Validated Design for SDDCs with multiple availability zones. Traditionally compute networking in an active-active multisite setup has had its challenges, but with vSAN storage and NSX networking technologies that’s…
