VMware vSphere – have you ever asked yourself what happens when the USB device / SD card where you have installed ESXi fails

Donnerstag, Dezember 24th, 2015

vmware_logo.jpg   The good news is – nothing – because ESXi is loaded into memory while booting so there is no impact on ESXi when the device fails and all virtual machines will continue to run as usual in the short run

SDcard_00

another piece of good news is that this case is monitored by ESXi and you will receive a notification in your vCenter for example „Lost connectivity to the device mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0 backing the boot filesystem /vmfs/devices/diskk/mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0. As a result, host configuration changes will not be saved to persistent storage“
