Chapter 9. VSAN 6.0
In this chapter, we will discuss the following topics with a recipe for each:
- Tagging disks as SSDs in vSphere 6.0
- VSAN 6.0 fault domains
- Upgrading to the VSAN 6.0 on-disk format
Introduction
The overall operational paradigm of VSAN/vSphere 6.0 is very similar to that of vSphere/VSAN 5.5. While this means that a comfortable understanding of the VSAN 5.5 release will translate directly into implementation and operations in VSAN 6.0, there are some elements specific to VSAN 6.0 that are important to understand. These include new features, such as multi-host fault domains and format upgrades, as well as improved processes related to the initial setup and configuration.
