We currently are running a vCenter 5.5 server with a HA/DRS enabled cluster with hosts running ESXi 5.5. We are looking to integrate vCAC 5.2 with this vCenter to enable 3 main features:-
1. Fast Provisioning (Linked Clones)
2. Lease Times (Auto delete after lease expiration)
3. Simple provisioning of multiple linked clones of a single template
Is this all possible using the vCAC standard edition? I would also be interested if there are any VMware best practices / recommendations for running vCenter VM's and vCAC virtual machines in the same cluster? I assume as these are one and the same this is recommended and supported? we currently use vCD 5.1 in a separate location and VMware advised against mixing vCloud and vCenter VM's in the same cluster
Thanks in advance
Craig
