Dear All
I wnat to buy to HP DL380G90 Server and configure them as a cluster with HA
but the company does not want to pay extra for NAS and SAN Storage
is it possible to configure HA without NAS or SAN ?
if yes where can I find useful links ?
I know it is not possible with VSAN Please Help me
Thanks a million.

HA isn't really an option without a SAN.
You could investigaate vSphere replication; VMware vSphere Replication .
Hope this helps

It's not possible with some kind of shared storage. The standby host needs to read the vm data to power the VM back on. VSAN is an option too.
as I know vSAN needs three host to work
You could consider 3 x a single CPU server. Which in many cases is cheaper than 2 x Dual CPU server. Another option would be selecting a different storage appliance. vSAN requires 2 + a witness VM somewhere. Or 3 hosts. There are some appliances which only need 2, although I would ask myself what happens if there's a network partition or a host is isolated. How does the appliance know which half owns what?
