[cisco-voip] using resource pools to organize VMs - supported?

[Ryan Huff]

As I understand the TRC, as long as the compute/storage needs are available 100% of the time (no oversubscription) and the storage wasn't dynamically created (thin provision); then I believe you are okay to organize as you see fit.

I think you can thin provision, as long as the total storage allocation is always available (which kind of makes dynamic vdisks pointless anyway).

We’d like to come up with a way to organize our collaboration VMs, especially when upgrades are underway.

I don’t see folders as an option under ESXi 5.5 or 6.0 (using vSphere client only, no vCentre), only resource pools.

Can I use Resource Pools for this? I’m guessing any VM based resource reservation will take precedence over any resource pool settings?
