What is the maximum number of ESXi hosts in a vSphere cluster used by View Composer if using VMFS datastores?
A. 4
B. 8
C. 32
D. 16
Correct Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
View 5.2 Configuration Maximums
8 hosts per cluster when using View Composer linked clones on VMFS storage.
32 hosts per cluster when using full clones, or when using linked clones on NFS storage.
128 linked clones per datastore (previously 64), or 140 if VAAI is enabled (see note below).
512 linked clones per replica. This is not a hard limit, and you may find you can exceed this.
1 replica datastore per desktop pool.
8-10 virtual machines per CPU core (guideline).
1,000 desktops provisioned by View Composer per pool (includes recompose).
