Hello together,
I just installed the new SC4.1c And tried to configure a backup for a VMware Datastore.
First some more information about our environment:
We have a multicustomer environment for each customer we have a dedicated vfiler with a dedicated ipspace.
The SC Server can access the physical Storage Systems over HTTPS. Sadly it is not possible to connect to the vfiler because HTTP is not allowed in this environment and HTTPS is not integrated in the vfiler.
I tried to configure the vibe plugin to use the physical Storage System for the backup. But sadly it tries to find the export path which is located in the vfiler. I also tried the option "VIBE_DYNAMIC_VOLUMES_UPDATE=N" but this option seems to have no effect. It still tries to find the export path.
Is there any possibility to create a VMware backup without talking to the vfiler? Maybe it is possible to use an SC Agent running in the VLAN where the vfiler is located. (As Proxy)
I allready have a server in this environemnt which is able to talk to the vcenter over HTTPS and to the vfiler over HTTP. But in this case it runs into a timeout. Seems the connection to the vfiler is initialized from the SC Server and not from the SC Agent.
