Abstract
Example methods are provided to perform disk assignment for multiple distributed computing clusters in a virtualized computing environment. The method may include determining whether disk assignment is required for a host to support a first virtualized computing instance from a first distributed computing cluster and a second virtualized computing instance from a second distributed computing cluster. The method may also include migrating first data placed on one or more second disks to one or more first disks, reassigning the one or more second disks from the first virtualized computing instance to the second virtualized computing instance, and placing second data on the one or more second disks. The first data may be for access by the first virtualized computing instance to execute a first distributed computing application, and the second data may be for access by the second virtualized computing instance to execute a second distributed computing application.
