VxRail 7.0.240 introduced Dynamic Node architecture which allows compute nodes to be deployed without local storage drives. Storage is provided by external arrays connected via Fibre Channel or using HCI Mesh. The document provides release notes on Dynamic Node support in subsequent VxRail releases, including protocols supported and integration with PowerStore, PowerMax, and Unity storage arrays. It also describes the differences in deployment process compared to standard VxRail clusters, such as not requiring vSAN licensing and using an external vCenter Server. The initial deployment is similar except certain settings like storage type and vCenter configuration must be customized.
