There are 14 Datastores, each with one 1 Volume/FC LUN.</P> <P>I know that some Plug-ins have an option to take snapshots in a Consistency Group to ensure the consistency of the snapshots across the volumes. However there are no Plug-ins for this application.</P> <P>I am adding all the Datastores to the same Resource Group in the vSphere Plug-in, but I don't think this is guaranteeing that the snapshots will be taken as a consistent group.</P> <P>Any ideas on how to achieve this?</P> <P>Thanks</P> Wed, 04 Jun 2025 12:54:49 GMT emre_bcbsa 2025-06-04T12:54:49Z https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/CG-Consistency-Group-snapshots-with-Plug-in-for-VMware/m-p/146229#M12258 <P>Hi,</P> <P>We have a requirement to protect an application with several VM’s spanning across several Datastores.
