Not is this upcoming release. With VMware HA, it's easily handled by
vcenter if you have the correct licenses...
With the libvirt module - this release is going to support kvm.
Libvirt also supports vmware, but that would need to be added in later
if necessary. The current work that Aaron Coburn
Great. I'll create a jira issue on it to give it an initial home. You
should see it come across the vcl-dev list shortly.
Thanks again and looking forward to your presentation.

Definitely doable.
Also might be worth doing it within a ESXi server. Nested hypervisor -
possibly a bit better control on which networks are visible.
With the connection methods in the next release, you could define
vsphere client as the connection method.

There is definitely a performance penalty for running ESXi as a guest OS.
I don't think the hardware virtualization features of the CPU can be
passed on to an ESXi guest, which also means no 64-bit guests inside the
ESXi guest.
Suggest reading the notes on this blog:
I'm not looking for nested hypervisors - this would work for someone who wants
to play/study ESXi server. But even in this case VCL needs a module to handle
ESXi reservation - this step would fail for nested esxi as well…
How would I add/use/load a new pm module for ESXi reservation? I plan

Could I extend existing ESXi.pm module at
/usr/local/vcl/lib/VCL/Module/OS/Linux/ESXi.pm?
Everyhing you described seems to be already in place - entry for esxi OS
(OSid), module name/path.
Thanks.
