Note: A vCloud Director cluster contains one or more vCloud Director serv ers; these servers are referred to as<br />

cells and f orm the basis of the VMware cloud. A cloud can be <strong>for</strong>med from multiple cells. The number of<br />

vCloud Director cells depends on the size of the vCloud environment and the level of redundancy.<br />

Figure 8. Cloud management cluster<br />

Resources allocated <strong>for</strong> cloud use have little overhead reserved. For example, cloud resource groups<br />

would not host vCenter management virtual machines. Best practices encourage separating the cloud<br />

management cluster from the cloud resource groups(s) in order to:<br />

• Facilitate quicker troubleshooting and problem resolution. Management components are strictly<br />

contained in a specified cluster and manageable management cluster.<br />

• Keep cloud management components separate from the resources they are managing.<br />

• Consistently and transparently manage and carve up resource groups.<br />

• Provide an additional step <strong>for</strong> high availability and redundancy <strong>for</strong> the trusted multi-tenancy<br />

infrastructure.<br />
