 <p>This example is identical to the one above except that the repository located on the management node's local disk is not exported via NFS.  Because of this, images must be transferred using SCP instead of vmkfstools.  This is less desirable than mounting the repository directly on the VM hosts because images cannot be copied and converted in a single step.  Images are stored in the repository in the 2GB sparse format.  This allows the images to be copied via SCP while only transferring the data stored in the image, not the entire size of the hard drive stored in the image.  VMware ESXi cannot run VMs using vmdk images stored in the 2GB sparse format.  Images are converted to the vmfs thin format so that they can be loaded on VMware ESXi.  This adds extra time to the load process if an image does not exist in the VM's local datastore (Virtual Disk Path) and must be copied from the repository.  It also requires additional space in the VM host's local datastore (Virtual Disk
  Path) becuase 2 copies of the image exist while it is being converted.
 Note that the VM host profile Repository Path parameter is set to the path on the management node's hard drive.  The code first checks if the path exists on the VM host.  If not, it assumes the repository is not mounted directly on the VM host and the Repository Path value refers to a location on the management node.</p>

 <p>This is an example of a simple configuration where the network storage is used.</p>
 <p>A repository is not used in this configuration.  This implies that all VM hosts which will ever be added to this VCL environment will need to be able to connect to the network storage.</p>
 <p>A datastore to be used as the Virtual Disk Path named "datastore" is mounted on every VM host.  Each of these mounts points to the same location on the network storage.  The datastore will contain the master vmdk images.  VMs loaded on the VM hosts will read from these master vmdk images.</p>
