Jessica Tomechak commented on CLOUDSTACK-833:
---------------------------------------------
Ignore previous comment, as the limit actually implemented is not 16. The text
should read more like "The maximum number of hosts in a vSphere cluster is
determined by the VMware hypervisor software. For VMware versions 4.0, 4.1,
5.0, and 5.1, the limit is 32 hosts. Best Practice: It is advisable for VMware
clusters in CloudStack to be smaller than the VMware hypervisor's maximum size.
A cluster size of up to 8 hosts has been found optimal for most real-world
situations. The reasons for this recommendation are as follows:" and then give
the reasons.
What were the reasons for the 8-host limit? The reasons were not documented
previously.
