On our demo environement, we have deployed vCenter 8.0.3, SnapCenter 6.1, and SnapCenter tools for vSphere 6.1 plugin. We are trying to also deploy the latest ONTAP Tools for vSphere 10.3 into the same environment. During ONTAP Tools OVA deployed, and initalization completed with VM power on, it is found that the ONTAP Tools for vSphere 10.3 first appliance used the SnapCenter tools for vSphere plugin appliances IP, instead of the OVA wizard one (e.g. 10.128.128.221). Tried to deploy a few times again but it is still the same, any one experiences similar issues? No way to edit the Node appliance IP address in GUI. No way to edit the Node appliance IP address in console. Documentation not match API calls for 10.3 Tried to change the IP address for ONTAP Tools for vSphere 10.3, but don't find any doc, and the KB seems not match with 10.3 API seetings, please have UI that can change IP address easily! https://kb.netapp.com/data-mgmt/OTV/VSC_Kbs/ONTAP_Tools__How_to_change_the_IP_address_of_OTV_9_12

Hi, I have just installed Ontap Tools 10.3 and am having a problem with deploying nodes in HA setup. From my lib I managed to deploy the ontapp tools VM with the first node. But since the new ontapp tools interface, I cannot deploy the other two nodes, I have this error message: My ontaptools vm, the three nodes and the vcenter are all on the same /24. do you have any idea where this could come from? Thanks

Hi all, I don't know if this is the right board, but I will select this one. I acquired a refurbished Netapp Switch for my homelab, and I am trying to configure this, but I am getting stuck when I want to configure a port without any VLANs, and I don't know why. This Switch is connected to two HPE DL362-G9(vSphere) and a Synology. (SwitchNetApp) #show version Switch: 1 System Description............................. NetApp CN1610, 1.3.0.2, Linux 3.8.13-2de1cc1c Machine Type................................... NetApp CN1610 Machine Model.................................. CN1610 Serial Number.................................. 41011200095 Part Number.................................... 111-00982 Burned In MAC Address.......................... 00:A0:98:EA:6D:82 Software Version............................... 1.3.0.2 Operating System............................... Linux 3.8.13-2de1cc1c Network Processing Device...................... BCM56820_B0 CPLD version................................... 0x6 Additional Packages............................ FASTPATH QOS FASTPATH IPv6 Management This is my problem: I have ports from 1-5 using VLAN 10 for the storage network, and working without issues. In Synology and ESXi Storage is working all is ok with 10Gb connections. This is an example of the port configuration: (SwitchNetApp) #show running-config interface 0/1 !Current Configuration: ! interface 0/1 mtu 9216 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk allowed vlan 10 lldp transmit lldp receive lldp med exit But for the ports, I don't need VLANs, like for VMs network and ESXi management, I can't get the port to work. On the vSphere switch, everything is ok since I have another switch(1Gb) where I connect, and the ESXi and VMs have a network. But any port on NEtapp switch I try to connect I cant make it work. Ports, cables, and interface cards are ok because if I change the configuration to use VLAN10(like above), it works. Example of a port withou any VLAN: (SwitchNetApp) #show running-config interface 0/14 !Current Configuration: ! interface 0/14 switchport mode access lldp transmit lldp receive lldp notification lldp med exit I have tried everything, with native VLAN1 without, with mode access, and without, and I don't know why nothing works. Since Virtual Switch doesn't have VLAN or trunk, it should be easy, but no. What am I doing wrong here? Thank You LP

Hi there, I have following the manual to install the ONTAP Tools for vSphere 10.3, succefully deployed the first node. After that I tried to deploy optional services, VASA provider, SRA, etc. Checked HA, filled vCenter and Content Library path same as I deployed first node, entered HA settings and allowed pre-check passed, after that deployment started but it keeps failed at 35%, and I saw it was unable to deploy node 2 and node 3 with folllowing errors: "Deleting node since deploy vms/install rke2 failed" Searched KB but no found any clues, any ideas? before I try to place a call, many thanks!

Hi there, I set the host name to NA-OTV-01, but not able to initalize the config via OVA deploy.. The Internet standards (Requests for Comments) for protocols mandate that component hostname labels may contain only the ASCII letters 'a' through 'z' (in a case-insensitive manner), the digits '0' through '9', and the hyphen ('-'). The original specification of hostnames in RFC 952, mandated that labels could not start with a digit or with a hyphen, and must not end with a hyphen. However, a subsequent specification (RFC 1123) permitted hostname labels to start with digits. No other symbols, punctuation characters, or white space are permitted. Though hyphen in the hostname is allowed, two consecutive hyphens ('--") in the hostname are not allowed.
