In Part 3 of this series, we will be taking a look at deploying our Nested Lab in a Google Cloud VMware Engine environment. One thing you may notice that is different between VMConAWS and AVS is that we are actually running a Nested vSAN on top of the physical vSAN within GCVE. In the current version of GCVE, customers have the ability to "escalate" their privileges from the default and this would allow us to configure the necessary ESXi advanced setting so that we do not have to rely on an NFS setup. For networking, customers also have full access to the NSX-T Manager instance and this means that MAC Learning can be enabled which will allow inner-guest workloads will be able to communicate properly within and outside of the Nested Lab deployment.
Disclaimer: Nested ESXi is not officially supported on Google Cloud VMware Engine or by VMware.
