Adding, viewing, and deleting clusters for Security and Compliance Readiness Bundle instances

End of Marketing: As of 31 October 2025, new deployments of VMware Solutions offerings are no longer available for new customers. Existing customers can still use and expand their active VMware® workloads on IBM Cloud®. For more information, see End of Marketing for VMware on IBM Cloud.

New deployments of Security and Compliance Readiness Bundle instances are no longer supported. You can still add or delete clusters, add or delete VMware ESXi™ servers or NFS storage, and add or remove services for existing instances. You can also view and delete your Security and Compliance Readiness Bundle instances.

You can add clusters to Security and Compliance Readiness Bundle instances to expand the compute and storage capacity. Within a cluster, you can manage VMware ESXi servers for better resource allocation and high availability. When no longer needed, delete the added clusters from your instances.

The procedures to add, view, and delete clusters for Security and Compliance Readiness Bundle instances are similar to the procedures for VMware Cloud Foundation for Classic - Automated instances. For more information, see the following topics:
