Hi all,
I have just completed a migration from vCenter 4.1 to vCenter 5.1 by swinging all of my 4.1 hosts from the vCenter service under windows to the new vCenter appliance VM. I have 4 hosts (All Dells, 2x R510 and 2x R710) which have identical procs/memory. I have organized them into a datacenter in vCenter, but I have stopped short of putting them into a cluster. As they are now, I can vmotion between them without issue, and I only have Standard licensing, so I don't think I can take advantage of all of the great features of clustering like DRS. So, my question is, what are the pros and cons of clustering at my license level if EVC is a non-issue? Should I even bother?
