I am trying to get clarity on NUMA node usage on boxes with a large amount of cores. Windows I know has a 64 core numa node max. AMD now makes very large core cpus, and with 2 socket boxes you can now get 256 cores per server. Would VMWARE end up with 4 NUMA nodes each 64cores in this scenario? So on VMWARE (standard), if I were to deploy 10 systems that are 24 cores each, is this a problem? Is it possible to avoid ending up with nodes that splits across NUMA? Would I be limited 8x24 core nodes? Are folks using virtual numa for this, or is that just to be able to make allocations within numa ..read more

Hi all, So I have a requirement to get SSO+MFA into AzureAD functioning with vSphere, which I have successfully done. Some of you may know, the official vmware app actually has you expose vCenter on a public IP - a bit insane. So I followed this: https://compunet.biz/resources/vcenter-8-azure-ad-integration-guide/ .. similar guides recommended elsewhere including this sub. This works, however what ends up getting provisioned on the SCIM server is only the users. This is despite the fact that in the AzureAD portal for the SCIM App registration I'm ONLY using groups. The groups membership is de ..read more

I have very little experience with USB dongles connected to hosts and attached to vm's, but my team recently took over remote sites where there's some in use. Looks like one is configured without passthrough and instead they're using a vm/host affinity rule, but what I never thought about is passthrough is only good for vmotion and DRS if the host with the USB key stays online, correct? If that host with the USB device attached goes down and the vm gets moved to another host, the vm will lose it's USB connection and the USB device will need to be moved to another online cluster host, right? I ..read more

Am I a moron or is the logic broken? Trying to migrate VMs from a traditional vSphere 7 cluster to a new vSphere 8 vSAN cluster and it won't do the migration because the destination dvSwitch is version 8 instead of version 7.x. What's the right move here? Creating a new 7.X dvSwitch to match the old cluster for the migration and then move it to the 8.x dvSwitch post migration? submitted by /u/RikerOmegaThree [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
