Home Lab

Encouraged to do so by William Lam's project to aggregate home lab builds, I decided to put together the bill of materials that make up my home lab. Unfortunately, not all of the lab hosts are built using identical hardware as the hardware has been purchased at various times and some of it repurposed.

The lab currently contains:

• 87.84 GHz of CPU Capacity (28 cores total)
• 512 GB of RAM
• 8 TB of SSD for vSAN Capacity Tier
• 4 TB of NVMe for vSAN Cache Tier
• 10 Gbps Networking

The lab currently supports:

• VMware Cloud Foundation 5.1
  • VMware vSphere 8.0 Update 2
  • VMware vSAN 8.0 Update 2
  • VMware NSX 4.1.2.1
• VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle 8.14.0
• VMware Aria Automation 8.16.0
• VMware Aria Automation Config 8.16.0
• VMware Aria Operations 8.16.0
• VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.16.0
• VMware Identity Manager 3.3.7
