vSAN with custom Storage Policy set as Default.

Hi All

We are looking to set a custom storage policy within our vSAN estate so that it is automatically applied to new VMs.

However i am a little concerned in regard to the warning note.

Default Storage Policies in vSphere (vmware.com)

.

Note: Do not designate a storage policy with replication rules as a default storage policy. Otherwise, the policy prevents you from selecting replication groups.

.

I find this really ambiguous is it specifically referring to a vSAN component or to a vMware replication product (SRM or vSphere Replication)

TIA

P

it is referring to the replication products, not to vSAN indeed. So feel free to create a new policy and set that as the datastore default
