Hello, I have an ONTAP Tools for VMWARE with version 9.13.1 that since few weeks ago is being reported in VCSA as using 100% cpu. The ova was installed with 12 Gb RAM and 4 vCPU's. I've increase the RAM on the OVA from 12 to 18, but nothing. I've also increased the vCPU's to 8, and also nothing. Few minutes after a reboot the performance is degraded as its using 100% cpu. Does anybody faced this issue anytime? Regards,

Hi Gurus, We understand that MetroCluster can work with SnapMirror for a three-site solution. We just want to confirm if this solution can work with VMware. There's no NetApp or VMware document about this specifically. A customer wants to implement a three-site solution: Metrocluster with VMware stretched HA & vMSC between the primary site and the secondary site SnapMirror Asyc replication to the 3rd site, integrated with VMware SRM Thanks in advance! -phil

The role named "VSC Provision" has these custom privileges that appear to be added that apply only for ONTAP: NetApp ONTAP tools for VMware vSphere View privilege.nvpfVSC.Kamino.Datastore.com.netapp.nvpf.label Manage datastores Provision privilege.nvpfVSC.VASAGroup.com.netapp.nvpf.label View I have tried adding these privs to a custom vcenter role we created for users that are allowed to do most things a power user in vCenter would be able to do but they can't seem to use OTV at all. When they go to the OTV plugin, they can't see anything at all. If I change the role for the user to the "VCS Provision" role and log into vcenter again, they can see what they need to see. So, what privilege is actually being missed? What special thing is happening that OTV is missing or looking for that I'm not noticing?

We are currently running OnTAP Tools 9.11. I see that I can upgrade to 9.13 easily enough, but 10.0 seems to be a different animal altogether. The link belong talks about migrating from 9.x to 10, but I can't find information on upgrading. Does a separate OVA need to be deployed to 'upgrade' to 10? If so I can't find that documented anywhere. The article below talks about being able to migrate from 9.11 "D4", but not from 9.12 or 9.13. If I upgrade to 9.13, will I be able to migrate to 10? Can anyone provide clarity? Thanks in advance. https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-tools-vmware-vsphere-10/migrate/migrate_to_ng.html
