ScaleIO on VMware cluster with only two ESXi?

I want to try ScaleIO but the cluster available to me for this only have two ESXi, I know that this its not supported but can be done? Can I set the TB on other Host (for example the vCenter?) The vCenter is hosted on external ESXi.

As per the Install Guide:

A minimum of three devices to be added to SDS, that all meet the following prerequisites:

• A minimum of 100 GB available storage capacity.

• The devices must be free of partitions.

• If a device has a datastore on it, before adding the device, you must either remove the datastore, or use the plug-in Advanced settings option to enable VMDK creation.

Thanks gearoidc,

I now understand, ScaleIO needs minimum of three SDS Servers.

I will need a third ESXi hosts...
