I have some very small sites with 2 physical servers. They are connected to a vCenter over the WAN. That vCenter uses distributed virtual switches for all local ESXi hosts. What are the arguments for standardizing even small sites on the vDS, vs. using standard switches on sites with less than x number of servers? In this case small sites also tend to have non-standard physical NIC layouts such as only 4 NICs, which differ from every other site - meaning they need specialized vDS configurations.
