Where tiered storage or SSDs are not available, am I right to assume that best practices for linked clone pool placement on vmfs datastores is 1 Pool = 1 VMFS datastore?
Is there a situation where placing two smaller (10 concurrent users and machines) floating linked clone pools on a single VMFS datastore is acceptable?
I understand the recommended maximum is 64-128 linked clones per VMFS datastore, but I guess this maximum assumes you only have one replica disk on the datastore?
Is there a situation where two or more small pools on a single datastore could be acceptable? Based on the '64 linked clone' datastore limit, could you for example, happily place 6 linked clone pools with 10 machines without breaking best practice?
