NSX design question : NSX on top[of Two Node vSan Cluster

[singhraj]

Home Lab : i have two physical hosts for vsan cluster with one witness node.

1. can i build nsx (( management & Edge) and Compute ) two  clusters on top of one vsan cluster

   or ( Managmend , Edge , Compute ) three cluster on top of  one vsan cluster with two physical hosts and management on witness node (NUC)

2. or build two nested vsan clusters on two physical hosts with one witness node  and install nsx Edge and Compute clusters on top of both vsan clusters and install NSX management on NUC.

each physical server have 3x500 gb ssd and 3x 4tb hhsd and 500gb ssd  for vmfs storage on each hosts and 80 gig memory on both hosts

please advise .

You can stick NSX in a single cluster but not really recommended. have you had time to look at the nsx design documents and look for recommended approach?

You need to figure out what you really want to do. if its just testing

it for just testing

i would like to go with second design  if i can

but

Second diagram:  can I build Management cluster on NUC without vSan.and

move vCenter and NSX manager to NUC.

challenge  is I am only going to have three network port after converting two USB ports into network.

please advise
