HOL-SDC-1608, our VSAN hands-on-lab, has been updated for VSAN version 6.2.

This lab contains a bunch of new VSAN 6.2 features including erasure coding (RAID-5/6), checksum, sparse swap and dedupe/compression. You can also see the new health check views, performance metric views and capacity views.

Also included is a workflow that will guide you through configuring VSAN stretched cluster and remote-office/branch-office (ROBO) implementations, and how these features work with HA to restart VMs in the event of a failure.

The whole lab is modularised, so you can simply look at the features that interest you.
