Hello, dear blog readers,
As they say in Homelab, nothing is as constant as change. Therefore at the end of this month another change in my Homelab environment.
I have adapted the design of my home lab topology again and invested in another physical host to run VMware Cloud Foundation (Holodeck) in my lab.
So welcome with me another HPE DL 380 Gen9 host in my lab, which I will use exclusively for VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) testing, hands-on experiences, and customer demos.

As always pictures say more than words, so I redrew the whole thing and you can find it below:
