The new vCenter Server appliance contains all the Platform Services Controller services from earlier releases, preserving all previous functionality, including authentication, certificate management, and licensing. Learn About Some of Our Featuresīeginning in vSphere 7.0, you can only deploy or upgrade to vCenter Server 7.0 using an appliance. Want to know what is in the current release of vSphere? Look at the latest vSphere release notes. vCenter Server is the service through which you manage multiple hosts connected in a network and pool host resources. ESXi is the virtualization platform where you create and run virtual machines and virtual appliances. The number of powered on VMs and registered VMs could be increase using linked mode across vCenter Servers with the same limits of vCenter 6.5U1 (that are bigger compared to the GA version of 6.5).The two core components of vSphere are ESXi and vCenter Server.

3X faster DRS-related operations (e.g.

2X faster performance in vCenter operations per second.

There are huge increase in the vSphere 6.7 vCSA delivers compared at cluster scale limits, versus vSphere 6.5:

The virtual appliance (vCSA) deployment of vCenter Server is the first choice with also some new features available only for it! Starting with v6.0, vSphere FT finally has grow from v1.0 with new limits: Max 1 Virtual RDMA Adapters per Virtual Machine.Max 1 TB Non-volatile memory per virtual machine.New virtual hardware available in vSphere 6.7 are: Some limits and features are available only with the new virtual hardware, other also for previous versions. Virtual Machine with Virtual Hardware (vHW 14)įor each virtual machines those are the new limits, that are almost the same of v6.5: And also the Persisten Memory of 1TB is supported on specific OEM certified platform.įor networking there is the support also for 25 and 50Gbps NICs.

Note that maximum physical CPUs: it used the logical CPU concept to consider also cores and hyper-threading.Īlso note that 16 TB of RAM is supported on specific OEM certified platform. Limits remains quite the same of v6.5, but there are interesting improvements in the storage and network part: Those new limits are both for scalability aspect, but also to fit with possible performance requirements, considering that a bigger number of business critical applications are going in the virtual environment.įor more information see the new official site: VMware Configuration Maximum. Maybe we can say with no limit, or at least, to be serious, with really huge numbers compared to the actual needs and the existing compunting power. The new VMware vSphere 6.7, recently available in GA, increase all configuration maximums to new limits (compared to the v6.5 and previous versions).
