Hi all,
I have a question - we have a 2-node ESXi cluster controlled by vCenter. Currently VSA is employed as a means of replicating the VMs data between the 2 nodes.
We have had performance issues recently, so we would like to break VSA but keep the VMs intact. Is there a way to do this safely? From the documentation on removing VSA it involves removing the datastores but we don't want to do this.
Looking at the datastore it shows all the vmdks in a sequentially numbered list under a vsa-0 folder, e.g. vsa-0_1.vmdk, vsa-0_2.vmdk etc., but on the other VSADs-0 and VSADs-1 datastores I can see the proper VM folders with their configs and vmdks etc within.
Is there a way we can remove VSA without losing the VMs, and will they reappear under the datastore under their proper VM folder names?
Apologies for the poor wording of the post, I hope it's understandable! 
Thanks in advance
Anthony
