Sure every host would have info about every other host, but each host's xml tree should have all the nodes in a nested in their corresponding cluster tags. Gmetad could hit any host and pick up info about both clusters on any host, but it should know to distribute the updates from the xml stream to the correct clusters and not 'cross pollinate' the two. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture > Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using > Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end > client virtualization framework.
