This feature would be extremely helpful in our environment. Our environment relys heavily on SDRS today and we would need to continue to use this model.

Hey all, Greg Domjan has been working on this at https://github.com/GregDomjan/vagrant-vsphere/tree/StorageSDRS - I'm sure he'd welcome any testers / feedback.

Thanks @clintoncwolfe , would appreciate some extra feedback before I send the pull request @Zoooook @matkay521225 @jbexten @Asrohan7 @SakoGuru .

The branch at https://github.com/GregDomjan/vagrant-vsphere/tree/StorageSDRS is working ok for me, except for setting vlan device option.

Doesn't look like you've updated the readme. What's the property name to use for the data store cluster? Also what's up with the vlan option..?

[Zoooook]

never mind, it's the same property, data_store_name

Me and @matkay521225 have been testing it, it works great for us, including vlan, don't know what your issue is there. The other 3 people who commented after us were just my minions :)

Happier to hear it's not a general problem, though sad that I can't work out why mine doesn't work.

Could you let me know what sort of vlan configuration do you have? Network or Distributed virtual?
Our template points to an invalid device "Configure Me", when I try to set it to a valid device by name the network is found but I either get a permission denied trying to set the backing device or it seems to ignore the setting and leaves it using Configure Me. :(

We use a standard vSwitch for everything. We VLAN tag everything and have multiple tags on every vSwitch that has guest communication.

Does your vlan option work on the main branch?

[GregDomjan]

I'll move the vlan discussion to another issue.
The pull request for ClusterCompute and Storage DRS is pull / issue #101

Setting the vlan doesn't work for me in any scenario I've tried so far, VM/Template, main branch specific Storage or SDRS. Always remains the same unset "Change Me".
If I put in a name that doesn't exist the I get "Configured vlan not found", so I think I have a right one.
We only have "Standard Networks" and none of them are tagged. No distributed switch or port groups.

Pull #101 is now merged, can probably close this now
