Hello all, We are using VMware by Broadcom virtualization with multiple NetApp ONTAP systems. We are also using VMware Cloud Director for compute workloads. I noticed blog https://community.netapp.com/t5/Tech-ONTAP-Blogs/VMware-Sovereign-Cloud-with-NetApp-StorageGRID/ba-p/451035 where Cloud Director integration is possible with product NetApp StorageGrid. However, since we have already have multiple ONTAP systems, integrating additional StorageGrid system would bring additional unnecessary complication to say at least, compared with option to integrate with existing NetApp ONTAP S3. Is it possible to integrate Cloud Director with Netapp Ontap S3 ? If someone want to integrate Netapp S3 Storage with Cloud Director, does it involves additional licensing costs?

Hello I've created an object store on one cluster and trying to add it as a cloud tier on other cluster to create fabric-pool and offload some data from primary cluster. I've got intercluster LIFs in singe VLAN on both clusters and they're pinging each other. I've added cloud tier on primary cluster, but when I'm trying to attach local tiers to it I've got "ERROR: Cannot verify availability of the object store from node xxx. Reason: Connection timeout.." I'm struggling to find a reason for this timeout - I've checked and renewed access keys, I've checked certificate and cannot find a reason.

In an SG GRID, there are 8 nodes, 4 are 5712, and 4 are 5760, all in the same storage pool, 2 buckets created, one for FabricPool and the other for Commvault backup destination. EC 2+1 used in the two buckets. We noticed in recent days that one of the SG5712 node is reaching 93% while the other are around 57-70% used... SG5760 nodes are at 30% or a little bit less. How is SG balancing the writes? Why is one node approaching 100% faster than the others?
