Physical Disks in Holodeck Deployment

[MJMVCIX]

Hi All, 

I see for Holodeck, the disks in the physical server must be SSD or NVMe. 

In production (not nested) with vSAN OSA disks can be either but for ESA they must be NVMe. 

In Holodeck, if you have SSD physical disks, can you still setup VCF as a vSAN ESA Cluster? Or are the physical disks even in this nested setup still tied to the real world requirements of ESA Must be NVMe disks?

Thanks,

Yes, you can setup VCF with vSAN ESA in the nested environment using Holodeck with physical SSD disks mapped to the datastore used for deployment.
