Thanks Pablo for the details and confirmation on cross-site shared VMDK. There will be both cases (migration and new build). Similar to Windows Failover Cluster, just also wanted to check if Red Hat “High Availability Cluster” is also supported with shared VMDKs on Stretched Cluster across 2 AZs in VMC on AWS? Thanks

Hello, This is regarding Microsoft Failover Cluster on VMs running on VMC on AWS. I see that it is possible to share VMDK between 2 VMs running in same local VMware Cluster on VMC on AWS. However, I haven't see any link which shows if we can share virtual disks between 2 VMs running on VMC Stretched Cluster (In 2 different Availability Zones). For example, if I have Stretched Cluster deployed across two Availability zones (pls see following link) and one of the VM is running on AZ-1 and second VM is running on AZ-2, and I want to provision Microsoft Failover Cluster between these 2 VMs with shared VMDK. Could someone help if this is possible and supported by VMware on VMC on AWS?

I am new to Power CLI and Virtual Center. Not sure how to resolve this. Thanks

Hi Troy, I have to reset more than 60 VMs at a time. Can you suggest if is there any other way to perform this. Thanks Naresh
Hi Troy, Can I find multiple VMs using this way from Vi Client. I mean (ServerA+ServerB+ServerC) to search the selected VMs ? Thanks

Hello Friends, I am using Virtual Center 2.5 version. We have around 200 VMs in this virtual center. I need to reset selected VMs from Vi Client. I know that we can do this by going to Data Center folder and then go to Virtual Machine Tab and find the VM. Is there any way, if I can find multiple VMs from this way. I mean, is there any formula ( "ServerA"&"ServerB") to find multiple VMs so that I can select those VMs and reset all in one go. Thanks, Naresh
