The following summarizes the recommendations and considerations for fault domains with
VxRail:
To allow for complete chassis failure, all nodes in the same VxRail chassis should belong to
the same fault domains.
Nodes requirement vary based on failure to tolerate SPBM rule and fault domains
configured.
The best practice is to configure each fault domain with the same number of nodes to
ensure that sufficient resources are available to provide full coverage in the event of a
failure.
Configuring fault domains
1. Within vCenter, navigate to the
Host and Cluster
view.
2. Select the VxRail Cluster and in the
Manage
tab select
Fault Domains & Stretch Clusters.
The screenshot below is an example of this dialog.
3. Click on the green
+
to create a new fault domain.
4. Specify a name for the fault domain, select the nodes that belong to it, and click
OK
.
