VMware HA Settings

Are there any best practices documented for HA settings in a SimpliVity cluster?

Specifically, we are focused on initiating an HA event when the logical array (boot drives) that support the OVC fails. This has happenened multiple times at a client site and each time, it leaves the VMs stranded on the "failed" host until we power off the node and let VMware HA kick in and restart them on the good host.

Under the vSphere Availability service, there are settings for "Failure conditions and responses". These allow you to specify how VMware handles a datastore failure. By default, these settings (PDL and APD) are disabled.

What are the best settings for this in a SimpliVity environment?

Thanks,

Tony
