Anyone have any input, experience or thoughts regarding running vCenter as a VM, on UCS/vSphere 5, where the vCenter instance is used as the integration point for UCSM, and the VM on which vCenter is running is connected to the vDistributed Switch (h/w VN-link) that UCSM and vCenter is managing??
It sounds risky, but is it plausible? Do I need to use a regular vSwitch for connectivity if I want to virtualize vCenter? We presently run vCenter as a standalone host outside of the virtual environment it is managing.
