FT limitation and max configuration on esxi 6.7

[baber]

Dear all

Hi

i read a document about max configuration for vsphere 6.7 i saw FT max configuration :

     Virtual CPU per host  = 8

Virtual CPUs per virtual machine = 8

      Virtual machines per host  =4

is that means i can run 4 vms that each of them has 8 vcpu and enable FT on all of them (4 vms)

Is that correct ?

It looks like Yes as per the https://configmax.vmware.com/guest however I have not tested but worth validating once.

As per the config maximum, each FT VM can be configured with 8 CPUs and Max number of FT vms per host is 4 ( I think this was not changed from 6.5)

Thanks,

MS

that but in max configuration page mention :

virtual cpu per host = 8

virtual cpu per vm = 8

virtual machine per host = 4

now i confused when it mention max virtual cpu per host = 8

when i create 4 vm with max 8vcpu it will be more than 8 vcpu now is that mean i can create maximum 4 vm that each vm has 2 vcpu or 2vm that each vm has maximum 4vcpu or can create one vm with 8vcpu

is that correct ?
