VMware EVO:RAIL release 1.1.0

EVO:RAIL release 1.1.0 contains the following enhancements:

Increased scalability

EVO:RAIL is now scalable up to eight EVO:RAIL appliances per cluster, for a total of 32 server nodes. This

effectively doubles maximum supported scale for CPU, memory, and storage. It provides the ability to

support:

• Up to 800 general purpose server Virtual Machines (VMs)

• Up to 2000 VMware Horizon View VMs

EVO:RAIL expansion is always per appliance – you cannot add individual nodes to a cluster.

Improved hardware monitoring

The updates to the EVO:RAIL Management interface offer an improved look into your hardware's health

status. You are able to see the status of every node in every appliance, and monitor hard disk drives

(HDDs), solid state drives (SSDs), Network interface controllers (NICs), and ESXi boot devices.
