  • 1.  HA and DNS

    IS it possible to have ESX hosts in the same DRS/HA Cluster that have differing DNS suffixes

    ie 3 are alpha.com and 3 are delta.com

    is it a case of ensuring resolution between the six?

    Yes it is.

    You can use any domain names for esx hosts.

    1 .Domains must be search domains on esx hosts.

    2. Domains must know about each other.

    make entries in hosts files of each host machine

    Thats what I am doing entering all into the hosts file as permissions are causing a prob with nslookup queries although they can see each other and ping.

    Will post results and award points soon.
