Hello, I am attempting to reduce rights to the bare minimum on local OnTAP service accounts to increase our security posture. I've created a custom role for the VSC service account that just allows for discovery, however it occurred to me that we can probably go further. We use VSC for one single purpose only: to verify our ESX host settings match NetApp best practices. The only thing we do is browse to Overview and click Edit ESXi Host Settings when we have a new ESX host added. With this in mind: do we need an account on the cluster at all? Do we have to perform discovery if all we do is apply appropriate settings to ESX hosts? In other words: do I even need a local service account at all? Would love to hear any suggestions or thoughts!

Hi, some time ago i installed the 9.7.1 VSC in my vSphere 7.0.1 environment and created a VVOL datastore. I migrated VM's from NFS 4.1 datastores to the VVOL datastore without problems. But when doing a "compute" vMotion the process stuck at 85% for 30 to 40 sec. In this time the VM freezes. I had a NetApp case open, they found nothing in the logs but told me that they currently don't support the 7.0.1 but they adon't know that there are issues in that kind, i should open a case at VMware. VMware made some research but don't found something too in the the logs. To send this case in the next level i should bring my environment to a from VMware supported version, but in the VMware HCL the newest versions are: ESXi 6.5 U3 VASA Provider 7.1P1 (end of support since jan 2019) ONTAP 9.4 (end of support since jun 2019) So VMware closes the case... Today i updated my VSC to 9.7.1P1, but the vMotion issue is still present. So i have an issue and can't get help! Now the environment is supported by NetApp IMT, but this don't help when NetApp told me to open a case at VMware, and they don't help me because NetApp has missed to update the HCL at VMware. This very very bad!!!! NetApp PLEASE!!! Update the HCL at VMware!!!!
