Clustering Virtual Machines on a single Host...Pro's /Con's

133 Views

Hi,

We are moving to a new VM environment runinng ESX 4 Update 1 on HP c7000 enclosure, 8 ESX Hosts.

Our exisiting Produciton systems are clustered MSCS / SQL Server.

What is the value in clustering two VM's on the same host? typical clustering was to provide HA if one physical machine failed...but in a VM environment both VM's are on the same host.

I know I need to provide HA for production and would like to hear your comments and experience.

thanks,

Ld
