The Distributed HA environment uses server clusters for high availability and high performance.
Distributed HA cluster servers
You will need to deploy each of these servers from an OVA file. The recommended server sizing is in the next section.
Some suggested names for the servers are in brackets. You could replace the letter “A” with letters representing a name or location, and you could replace “DC1” with a location value.
