VSM - Multiple vCenters
Where we have a separate management cluster and a resource cluster (each with its own vCenter), how do we deploy VSM? It looks like you can't you register one VSM to two vcenters, so do we deploy two VSM's? There is only one shared EQL Group, so will both |VSMs be able to talk to the same EQL Group, and see the same VVOL containers, like they do currently with standard datastores?
Thanks in advance. Google turned up nothing for me, and neither did the install notes.

Our 6.0u2 vCenters share the same SSO through multiple external PSC's.
This seems to "enhanced Link" them together.
We have 2 Equallogic SANs in two different locations.
VSM is installed on one of them in the local vCenter. How do we get the second SAN to work with VSM and the second vCenter?
Thanks

So it sounds like I have to choose either having VSM for our EqualLogic SANs with multiple SSO domains or a single SSO Domain for our vCenters with no VSM.
It's curious that this issue has been around for so long considering that a single SSO is the preferred way. We have other plug-ins that allow you to select the appliance you want to configure/use. Dell/Equalogic should look into that.
