I just finished installing ESXi 6.5 on my new Gigabyte BRIX GB-BRi5H-8250 which has an Intel i5 processor, 32GB RAM and 240GB WD SSD. I noticed that when ESXi 6.5.0 installed, it repartitioned the whole drive into one 240GB datastore. Is this OK or should I re-partition it to a smaller amount? Ideally most of our production ESXi hosts have a 20GB boot drive.
The purpose of this installation is so that I can setup a test lab environment. My final step is to create 2 or 3 virtual machines in the lab, install ESXi on each one, and use that setup as a 3-host vCenter cluster.
