Unable to deploy a second instance of kubernetes cluster in the same resource pool in vSphere

[BaluDontu]

Currently, only a single instance of kubernetes cluster can be deployed in a resource pool inside vSphere. You cannot deploy another instance of kubernetes cluster on the same resource pool. The deployment would eventually if any attempt was made to do so.

The ideal way would be allow the user to deploy multiple instances of kubernetes cluster inside a single resource pool in vSphere.

Hi,

What's the status on this issue? Had a customer asking for it, although I'd also recommend separate RPs per cluster.

Any concerns with the other way around, e.g. placing Kubelets (worker) into different resource pools, e.g. to strictly separate batch from long-running services deployed in in separate VM groups.

User can deploy multiple kubernetes cluster in the same resource pool.
PR: #437 fixes this issue. User can specify the cluster name, which is prefixed to the node VM names and this allows deploying multiple clusters in the same resource pool.

@BaluDontu Can you please close this issue?

@BaluDontu that's just bizarre. The instructions you linked link back here and say "Only a single kubernetes cluster can exist in a resource pool". Is this some kind of a joke?
