I loaded the NetApp Simulator on an ESXi server to test something in our virtual lab.
We have a project that we need to replicate what a customer is doing so we can test VMs that use RAW disk mappings.
We need to replicate 6 to 8 disk that are RAW mapped to VMs
I followed an example to install and configure a single node cluster.
It defaults to multiple disk (56 disk with 52 available at 3.93 GB) and it looks like I have about 147 GB of space to create disk(s).
I am now at a point where i need to replicate 4 to 8 disk.
In the attached, I see 147.66 GB of usable space.
Do I need to create an aggregate for the 6 to 8 RAW disks or multiple aggregates for each disk?
What would be the steps necessary to accomplish setting up the disk mapping as RAW to the VMs
thanks
