Setting up OTV using a service account and per our internal security team best practices, they won't allow us to give the service account administrator rights into vCenter.    What are the granular permissions that we can grant to the service account that'll still allow us to both successfully install and manage OTV?   Configuration:  vCenter: 8.0 Update 2 ONTAP: 9.13.1Px OTV: 9.13P1 ...

We are currently running OnTAP Tools 9.11. I see that I can upgrade to 9.13 easily enough, but 10.0 seems to be a different animal altogether. The link belong talks about migrating from 9.x to 10, but I can't find information on upgrading. Does a separate OVA need to be deployed to 'upgrade' to 10? If so I can't find that documented anywhere. The article below talks about being able to migrate from 9.11 "D4", but not from 9.12 or 9.13. If I upgrade to 9.13, will I be able to migrate to 10? Can anyone provide clarity? Thanks in advance.   https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-tools-vmware-vsphere-10/migrate/migrate_to_ng.html ... View more

Do I need any fc connectivity as primary is based on FC protocol ? ... View more

Hello,   I have an ONTAP Tools for VMWARE with version 9.13.1 that since few weeks ago is being reported in VCSA as using 100% cpu.   The ova was installed with 12 Gb RAM and 4 vCPU's.   I've increase the RAM on  the OVA from 12 to 18, but nothing.
