Citrix Systems 4.2 Server User Manual


 
Chapter 10. Installing VMware for CloudPlatform
128
VMware VDS does not support multiple VDS per traffic type. If a user has many VDS switches, only
one can be used for Guest traffic and another one for Public traffic.
Additional switches of any type can be added for each cluster in the same zone. While adding the
clusters with different switch type, traffic labels is overridden at the cluster level.
Management and Storage network does not support VDS. Therefore, use Standard Switch for these
networks.
When you remove a guest network, the corresponding dvportgroup will not be removed on the
vCenter. You must manually delete them on the vCenter.

datacenter before you start:

The switch name in the Edit traffic label dialog while configuring a public and guest traffic during
zone creation.
During a zone creation, ensure that you select VMware vNetwork Distributed Virtual Switch when
you configure guest and public traffic type.
