NSX-T Manager Cluster Failure and vSphere DRS

[akumbalakandy]

Dear Team,

How NSX-T Manger Cluster Failure will affect the vSphere DRS services. As I understand, if a VM is vMotioned due to the DRS and NSX-T Manager clusters are not available, the CCP for NSX-T will not be get updated. Also, the transport node will not be able to get the mapping details in their LCP. 

Is there any best practices suggestions from VMware on this? 

Also, is there any chances to have Transport Node to Transport Node control plane sharing to overcome this situation?

That is true, if we lose the cluster majority, the control plane will be down ( you can check this from CLI) which will impact VMotion, data plane functionality. is intact So you need to ensure NSX-T managers are residing/pinned to a unique host/rack/storage etc.. ( management/resource cluster) based on the design.
