What’s New in the VMware vSphere 6.0 Platform

Windows Server Failover Clustering Enhancements

Support for workloads that must be protected using Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) has been

improved. In addition to the currently supported platforms, Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 and Microsoft

SQLServer2012havebeenadded.ThisincludessupportforbothWSFCandAlwaysOnAvailabilityGroups.

vSphere 6.0 introduces support for the PVSCSI adapter with virtual machines running WSFC. This provides

performance superior to that with the standard SCSI adapter. This enhancement helps deliver the storage I/O

needed for the most-demanding applications.

VMware vSphere vMotion® is now fully supported with Windows Server 2008 and later when using WSFC virtual

machines that are clustered across physical hosts using physical-mode RDMs. There is no need to fail over

applications to another host during vSphere maintenance activities, enabling higher levels of manageability and

availability. vSphere DRS is also fully supported for use with WSFC, ensuring best placement for virtual machines

on vSphere hosts and delivering best application performance.

vCenter Server Enhancements

vCenter Server Architecture Changes

vCenter Server 6.0 simpliﬁes planning and deployment by oering two deployment models. The ﬁrst,

embedded, deploys the new Platform Services Controller (PSC) and the vCenter Server system on the same

machine. The second, external, deploys the PSC and the vCenter Server instance on separate machines.

All vCenter Server services—such as VMware vCenter™ Inventory Service, VMware vSphere Web Client,

auto deploy, and so on—are installed along with vCenter Server. There are no longer separate installers

for these components, simplifying the architecture by combining functions onto a single machine.

VMware vSphere Update Manager™ remains as a standalone Microsoft Windows installation.
