VMware Cluster and it's type

                                      Vmware Cluster

Group of Host is called cluster in vmware. In vmware Cluster, host’s resources acts as a part of Cluster resource. vCenter manages cluster resource like a single pool of resources.


According to our requirement we can go for vSphere High Availability (HA) and vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) feature on cluster.


Ø  Protection against hardware failures
Ø  Planned maintenance with zero downtime
Ø  Protection against unplanned downtime and disasters

Clusters are used for 3 things- 
1) High availability
2) Load balancing
3) High performance computing.



1.   Login to vSphere Web Client and Navigate to Host and Clusters.



3.   Right click on Datacenter > New Cluster









4.   Now give name of the Cluster. ( It is very important windows here you can advance feature which you can select now or Park it to work later on).






6.   It’s done now you can see the Cluster under Datacenter.





Cluster look like collection of three Hosts.
