Note: Ensure that you have enough VMware licenses for the VMware Cloud Foundation package being installed and for the number of servers, CPUs, VMs, and vCenter instances that are planned for the environment. Work with your local Dell EMC or VMware sales team to find the most appropriate VMware Cloud Foundation package for your solution.
Implementing Ready Stack for VMware vCloud Foundation requires that the following infrastructure elements are present in the existing data center or configured at the time of deployment:
Dell EMC recommends a 10/25 GbE or 40/100 GbE infrastructure. Additional components, such as Dell Networking cables and transceivers, are required to uplink the Ready Stack to the network. The specific component requirements depend on your networking and uplink requirements.
Contact your Dell EMC Sales representative for more information about the power and cooling requirements.
