Hosts vs. Pools - Information Required
-
@DustinB If I add 20 hosts to a pool and create a VM in that pool, will it automatically pick the host that has sufficient resources available, such as CPU and RAM?
-
Yes.
-
@olivierlambert as shared earlier by @julien-f on this thread that we can only create vm on pool level and @olivierlambert said XO will automatically pick the host which has sufficient resources available for that vm. Can we manually pick the host in the pool to deploy a vm?
-
@irtaza9 - you can set an affinity for a host, so that when a VM is created your VM will always try and be housed on a particular host.
-
@irtaza9 You can opt to have a VM have a preferred Host Affinity, which basically means "Run here if possible" using the advanced settings while creating a VM or the Advanced settings once the VM has been created.
-
Passing a PCI GPU or a USB device to a given VM basically forces this, since these cards are Host Specific and are unable to be shared across hosts in the same pool.
IIRC that is..

@DustinB @cciecanuck Thank you.
