  • 1.  Subscribed content library at remote sites

    Posted Sep 11, 2019 05:48 PM

    I am getting ready to upgrade to vCenter 6.7u2c so i can take advantage of adding VM templates to content libraries.   I have no content libraries today.  I have 4 vCenters in linked mode, and if I understand correctly, I can create a published content library on one of those vCenters and subscribe to that from my other 3 vCenters.    But, I have several large sites that are managed remotely by those vCenters.   Is there a way to "publish" the contents of the content library to those remote sites so I do not have to deploy VMs to them across the WAN?  Or is that not possible since they do not have their own vCenter?

    Hi,

    Content Library on vSphere 6.7 Update 2 adds the ability to synchronize VM templates between vCenter Servers configured in Enhanced Link Mode or Hybrid Linked Mode.

    That is correct, but what I am asking is if there is a way to push the content library to a cluster at a remote site that is managed by the vCenter instance so VMs do not need to be deployed across the WAN.
