Objective

This documentation aims to explain the configuration options for NSX Edges and the steps to manage them within a VMware on OVHcloud environment. It also outlines technical limitations and provides guidance on how to adapt these configurations to specific needs.

Requirements

    • XL: 16 vCPU, 64 GB RAM.
  2. Number of NSX Edges:
    • Minimum: 2 (default configuration).
    • Maximum: Up to 10 NSX Edges per cluster.

Limitations

  • 1 NSX Edge cluster per vDC.
  • 10 NSX Edges maximum per cluster (Broadcom/VMware limitation).
  • NSX version 4.0.1 does not support:
