You can add new and existing ESXi hosts to the vCenter Server inventory. You create a new and empty cluster object by using the Quickstart workflow in the vSphere Client. For more information about vCLS, see vSphere Cluster Services. vCLS ensures that if vCenter Server becomes unavailable, cluster services remain available to maintain the resources and health of the workloads that run in the clusters.
Creating clusters in vsphere client 6.5 update#
Starting with vSphere 7.0 Update 1, vSphere Cluster Services (vCLS) is enabled by default and runs in all vSphere clusters. For more information about using images to manage ESXi hosts and clusters, see the Managing Host and Cluster Lifecycle documentation. Starting with vSphere 7.0 Update 2, during cluster creation, you can select a reference host and use the image on that host as the image for the newly created cluster.
Creating clusters in vsphere client 6.5 upgrade#
By using vSphere Lifecycle Manager images, you can easily update and upgrade the software and firmware on the hosts in the cluster. Starting with vSphere 7.0, you can create a cluster that you manage with a single image. If you plan to enable vSphere High Availability (HA), vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), and the VMware vSAN features, you must create clusters. After you dismiss the Cluster quickstart workflow, you cannot restore it for the current cluster. To confirm exiting the simplified configuration workflow, click Continue. The Skip Quickstart button prompts you to continue configuring the cluster and its hosts manually. After the cluster is configured, the card provides details on configuration mismatch and reports cluster health results through the vSAN Health service. You can configure network settings for vMotion traffic, review and customize cluster services.
After the hosts are added, the card shows the total number of hosts present in the cluster and displays health check validation for those hosts. You can edit the cluster name and enable or disable cluster services. The cards initiating wizards for renaming and configuring a new cluster Cluster Quickstart Workflow
Open the settings of the virtual machine to which you want to add the shared disk: Add > Hard Disk > SCSI disk type > Use an existing virtual disk > select file shareddisk01.vmdk. You can create and configure a cluster by using the simplified Quickstart workflow in theĬluster quickstart page, there are three cards for configuring your new cluster. Now you need to add the vmdk file (disk) you created to the first virtual machine.
