Explanation

Another method for checking to see if your hosts meet the FT requirements is to use the vCenter Server Profile Compliance tool. To check using this method just select your cluster in the left pane of the vSphere Client, and then in the right pane select the Profile Compliance tab. Click the Check Compliance Now link and it will check your hosts for compliance, including FT. Before you enable FT, be aware of one important limitation: VMware currently recommends that you do not use FT in a cluster that consists of a mix of ESX and ESXi hosts. This is because ESX hosts might become incompatible with ESXi hosts for FT purposes after they are patched, even when patched to the same level. This is a result of the patching process and will be resolved in a future release so that compatible ESX and ESXi versions are able to interoperate with FT even though patch numbers do not match exactly. Until this is resolved, you will need to take this into consideration if you plan to use FT, and make sure you adjust your clusters that will have FT- enabled VMs so that they consist of only ESX or ESXi hosts and not both.
