- Click on Management Group Tasks in right panel.
- Click on New Cluster.
- Select Standard Cluster and Click on Next.
- Give name of Cluster and select VSA system.
- Add Virtual IP which you will use when adding iSCSI targets in ESXi host. We will see in next post.
- Create Volume and give a appropriate name. Click on Next.
- You have completed Management Groups, Cluster, and Volumes. Review the summary. Click on Close.
