Cluster Quickstart

[eduardo123]

Will the host, containing the vCenter Server which manages this ESXi host, still be added to the cluster with Cluster Quickstart, although this host can not be entered maintenance mode?

Best regards,

@eduardo123, Are you initially deploying this as a bootstrap 1-node vSAN with vCenter on it?

Host in MM is a requirement for processing a node via Quickstart so I think you will just have to configure the other nodes via Quickstart and then once you have this cluster formed (and hence can migrate vCenter off this node and put it in MM with Ensure Accessibility) can process this node via Quickstart.
