Hi,

ONTAP 8.3 supports vVols so you need to upgrade there.

The only offical requirements I have seen from NetApp are as follows:

  • VSC 5.0.1 Beta
  • VASA Provider 6.0 for clustered Data ONTAP Beta
  • clustered Data ONTAP 8.2.1

 

However, the beta software no longer works with VVOL.


VSC and VSAP VP 6.0 will be released 'very soon' and will provide full support from what I understand.

IS this true that vvol is not supported on 7 mode anymore? We are running on 7 mode only and will not be upgrading to cluster mode. 

 

what options available?

think it is only supported in cdot from the documentation i can find, no reference to supporting 7 mode unfortunately.
