Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for maintaining high availability (HA) for virtual machines (VMs) running on host systems of a host cluster, where each host system executes a HA module in a plurality of HA modules and a storage module in a plurality of storage modules, where the host cluster aggregates, via the plurality of storage modules, locally-attached storage resources of the host systems to provide logical data store, and where persistent data for the VMs is stored across the locally-attached storage resources comprising the logical data store.
