What is the life cycle of the VXRail? Now that you mentioned its been around since 2016 and its now 2022, -- 6 years in production. With the large amounts of companies who have spent hundreds of thousands, if not millions, to deploy VXRail, what is the longevity of this solution? We have seen solutions similar to this where Dell pounds their chest on the next greatest development and in 5 years or less abandon it. We have seen very expensive and large storage arrays, MD3200 and MD3220i (2009 to 2016) for example, phased out without any notice in 2016; warranties could not be extended. The Dell VRTX was a replacement solution for those using the MD Storage and in 2022, Dell doesn't know if their going to continue with it nor what will replace it. So are we to expect the same in 2023 or 2024 with the VXRail? That concerns me, because here we have a video released in March 2021 and Dell is still promoting the VXRail. I want someone at Dell to step up and disclose to the masses if VXRail is short lived and just not telling us, or if we can count on Dell supporting it well beyond 2022.
We have dell m1000e and dell unity storage infra we are looking to refresh with vxrail i just want to check right now we have rhel & VM WARE work loads on blade server is possible to add multiple work load ON vxrail
Finally, someone who can clearly explain what VxRail is and why it's important. Amazing how many videos are not explaining this well. Got a question for you. If VxRail is sort of an All-in-One solution, what if you have storage needs that requires external storage. Can you do that? Internal storage options are only going to provide so much storage. I read a PDF from Dell that said external storage is possible, but it's not typically part of a Rail environment since Rail is built on clustered vmware vSAN.

Yes this is possible but understand that Dell is going to try and sell you everything Dell.
