SnapCenter 2.0 & multiple vCenters ?!

[thomasb82]

Hi guys,

we have 3 vCenters. Currently each vCenter is a Windows Server which has VSC installed locally.

Our plan is to migrate to 6.5 and end up with three of the linux VCSA`s.

Is it possible to support those from a dedicated, single VSC/SnapCenter Windows Server, or do I need 3 of them?

Thanks!

Hi,

Each SnapCenter Server can support multiple VSC servers. You must use the VSC GUI to register each VSC server individually with SnapCenter.

Well, but VSC only supports 1 vCenter each, correct?

So in the end I need 3 Windows servers for VSC...

Hi,

Yes, VSC only supports having the vSphere Web Client attached to one vCenter Server; it cannot be connected to multiple vCenter Servers.
