VMware vCloud Director 5.1 Evaluation Guide

The collection of vCenter Server instances that are attached to vCloud Director and the resources (compute and

storage) is referred to as a resource cluster. It is here that the workloads provisioned from vCloud Director are

run. This is shown in the following diagram:

Evaluation Lab Conﬁguration Details

In the creation of this guide, an attempt was made to simplify the environment as much as possible. Although

the evaluation environment available to a user might dier from the one in this guide, it is important that all

customers understand how the lab used here was constructed and why procedures were done in this way.

Architecture Overview

Logically, the environment used for this evaluation guide is split into two parts.

The ﬁrst logical part is the management cluster, which provides hosting for the vCloud Director infrastructure

components. These include the vCloud Director instance, vCloud Director database, vCloud Networking and

Security Manager, and vCenter Server instance under control of the vCloud Director that manages hosts in the

resource cluster. An additional vCenter Server instance is used to provide management for the management

cluster, because all of the components have been virtualized.

In this evaluation guide, the management cluster comprises two ESXi hosts. This enables the use of vSphere HA,

providing availability services for the virtual machines within the management cluster. If two vSphere hosts are

not available for the management cluster, the management components detailed in this guide can be run on a

single host. This, of course, limits the ability to enable vSphere HA.
