You may be able to do it by utilizing CloudStack management server "instance" concept. However, do it at your own risk though. You may try following
1) Planning your IP address allocation, make sure two set of IP addresses spaces are separated 2) For each CloudStack installation, for example, 4.0 and 4.1, configure global configuration variable "instance.name", give them distinct names 3) Separate your storages, for example, each MS installation has its own secondary storage Kelven On 3/15/13 2:31 PM, "Kelcey Damage (BT)" <[email protected]> wrote: >I honestly think it could work, but your resource reporting in CS might be >off > > >>-----Original Message----- >>From: Musayev, Ilya [mailto:[email protected]] >>Sent: Friday, March 15, 2013 2:27 PM >>To: [email protected] >>Subject: RE: [VMWARE] Can 1 VSphere cluster - be managed by 2 CS hosts >> >>Correct, there is no deep integration like agent, however it creates >>system >VMs >>and storage pool and I'm not certain if it find them as conflicting.. >> >>> -----Original Message----- >>> From: Kelcey Damage (BT) [mailto:[email protected]] >>> Sent: Friday, March 15, 2013 5:17 PM >>> To: [email protected] >>> Subject: RE: [VMWARE] Can 1 VSphere cluster - be managed by 2 CS hosts >>> >>> I guess it's a trick question, because there is no agent for vmware.
