Hi All All our vCenter are running the NetApp VSC plugin version 9.7.1p2 Today I've been trying to upgrade the VSCs to its replacement newest "Ontap Tools for vmWare Vsphere" v9.8 However whenever i try to run it the VSC just reports the upgrade .ISO isn't valid. Any thoughts, has any one seen anything similar. P

Dear team, I'm trying to generate a token for api queries with powershell, but can't find the right way to do it... How can I generate a token with powrrshell or create a permanent token?

The nicest thing about vVols in our environment was its native snapshots. You could pile up a bunch of snapshots if you were so inclined without worry. Stability and performance were not impacted while running with snapshots and deleting any number/size of snapshots on a VM took only a few seconds. But with NetApp's VAAI 2.0, VMware 7.0U2, and one entry in a VM's Configuration Parameters, we now have those same native snapshots. What's more, the improved VAAI works a lot better than vVols ever did with Citrix's Machine Creation Services. I understand vVols have other advantages that we don't use in our environment right now. If we ever flip back to LUNs, we may need to revisit vVols, but with the new VAAI, I may decommission vVols in our environment if only for the sake of simplicity. Don't forget to add a line to your VMs' configurations to take advantage of native snapshots: snapshot.alwaysAllowNative True

hi to all we configured thin provisoned volumes with thin luns, to vmware 6.7 environment. The luns are used for veaam replicas, so daily there are so much changes going on those luns. The vmware space recliamation works, but it is fairly slow i guess. Our main problem is about alerting the LUN free space.??? we can monitor the volume ,from netapp and from Netapp AIQ, also we can monitor the vmwware datastoree from wmware and vmware monitiroing software, but i couldnt find a alerting mechanizm for the netapp LUN , neither in netapp ssytem manager ,or Netapp AIQ (installed locally on vmware) Am i missing something, does anybody have an idea?
