[vRO73][VVD41] Placement of Powershell hosts for use by vRO

we are preparing to deploy vRA 7.3 per the VVD 4.1. The one item that i have failed to find in the VVD or via some Google-Fu is the suggested placement of servers that serve as extensions for vRO, more specifically Powershell script host.  Most of the vRA stack sits in the management cluster for a region except for items like vROPS Data Collectors and IaaS Agent servers that both sit in the Compute cluster of a Region.

My problem is that I can make arguments for each placement that both seem valid. I don't think it matters (much) but I am just trying to make sure i stick to the VVD when able.

Thanks,

In my humble opinion it does not matter and you could also consider making the IaaS web servers as a proxy and or the management / agent windows servers as an additional consideration

Thanks, this has been the response from any vRA/VVD person i have checked with.  I think for the time being I am going to put them with the 'remote' systems within each compute cluster.
