Storage DRS with HA

[MaresVelasco]

Hola

Molestando nuevamente y es por lo siguiente:

Tengo vSphere 5.0 y quiero hacer un laboratorio:

crear un cluster de datastore(ovbiamente tambien un cluster de host ESXi), con Storage DRS y quiero hacer si me falla un DS mi maquina virtual (MV) se vaya al otro DS con HA. Quiero que mis Maquinas virtuales tengan redundancia entre los datastores con HA. Quiero saber si es posible realizar este laboratorio y si lo hay habra un manual o guia que explique esto?

Por su ayuda muchas gracias

i want to if one DS fail my virtual machine(VM) work with the other DS using HA. I wanna made my VM with redundancy between DS with HA.

Is your question if Storage DRS could make a VM on a certain datastore available even if that datastore fails? If so, the answer is no. Storage DRS will only take care of placement of VMDK files and will not be able to handle some failover from an unavailable datastore.
