2 clusters in 1 site or 1 cluster in 2 sites

Hi

 

I am commissioning a new DC, initially I setup the new DC in VC as a new site.  But of course I can't vmotion between the two.

 

the plan is to have all the connectivity available at both sites, so if a VLAN exists on sate A it will exsit on site B, most of them will be stretched.

I have currently got 2 x 1 G L2 connections, but I going to have 10G dark fibre ring (dc1 -> dc2 -> office -> dc1) . I am looking at about 13-15Km fibre run.

 

So my VC choices are

 

Create in VC

a) 1 Site

b) 2 Sites

 

Cluster A (in DC1) could be in the same site as Cluster B ( in DC2) or they could be in separate sites.

 

I want

storage and host vmotion and vSphere replication.

I will have 3 nodes in each cluster

and I don't plan on having parts of prod (or any other environment) running split between the 2 sites, but I do want to be able to vmotion them from 1 site to another.

 

Currently I don't see any problem with with having 1 site and 2 clusters...  But thought i might ask the collective incase I am missing anything
