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

Few days before, I tried to upgrade the vCenter form 7.0u2 to 7.0u3. After the upgrade complete, the VMware plug in snapcenter was show the failed status. Immediately I recover the vCenter from snapshot, snapcenter status was change back to normal again. Existing environment: ONTAP version 9.7 / vCenter version 7.0u2 / snapcenter 4.5 Just want to know, vCenter 7.0u3 is that support snapcenter 4.5? If not, which version were compatible. Many thanks......

Hi, I was able to install RBAC User Creator for Data ONTAP 2.7 on windows 10 computer, but keeps on getting error: The windows desktop has full access to netapp management network and I can access the system manager from windows desktop. Please advise what can be causing and possible fix on RBAC error. Thanks, Pandoy
