Hi,
I have just hit this very issue in a customer enviornment. The IMT showed that SRA is supported with SRM 8.2, but made *no note* that the VMware SRM appliance is not supported. I am now having to uninstall SRM to start again with Windows SRM servers 😞
Can you please update the IMT to add a note that the SRM photon appliance is not supported?
The VSC, VASA Provider, and SRA 9.6 Documentation Center also offered no clear guidance in this regard (i.e. the need to install the SRA on an SRM server as well as enabling on VCSA) - it would be useful if it more clearly referenced the need for that step and that the SRM photon appliance is not supported.
It might also be useful to mention it in the release notes for the virtual appliance for VSC, VASA Provider, and SRA (known limitations).
I realise that some of these suggestions might not immediately seem appropriate, but I somehow managed to get to the point where I had deployed the photon SRM appliances without seeing even a hint that these are not supported with the SRA anywhere in the IMT or NetApp documentation......... apologies if I missed it somewhere obvious!
Many Thanks.
