Q1: Can multiple types of storage be used together?

A: Yes, HCI supports the mixed use of multiple storage types.

However, each virtual machine must explicitly specify its storage location and cannot span across different storage types.

Q2: Can an HCI virtual storage standard volume be converted into a stretched volume?

A: A standard volume cannot be converted into a stretched volume.

Q3: Do the primary and secondary zones in a hyper-converged stretched cluster need to have identical configurations?

A: The configurations of the primary and secondary fault domains in a stretched cluster do not need to be identical, and the number of hosts can also differ. However, when virtual machines from the primary fault domain migrate to the secondary domain, ensure that the secondary domain’s CPU, memory, and disk resources are sufficient to support their operation.
