I did not know this, but yesterday the PM for vCLS reached out to me and informed me that we now have a Skyline Health Check as well for vSphere Clustering Services. The funny thing is that I actually requested this health check to be added after having a discussion on the topic of vCLS with the PM. Very impressive how fast the engineering team managed to include an additional health check for a brand new feature, this close to the release. I created a short demo, which shows you where you can find the vSphere Skyline Health option in the vSphere Client, and of course, it shows the vCLS Health Check being triggered. If you see the health check triggered, you can as mentioned enable retread mode and disable it again, this will provision a fresh set of vCLS VMs. How you do this you can find in this “considerations blog“, or simply watch the demo I shared here.
