I'm having a weird error with one of my vvols after repairing a vsphere-ha corruption problem. the vvol shows connected to one cluster, but not connected under "connectivity with hosts" > configure with the other cluster under the same DC.Solved9.7KViews0likes102CommentsGreetings: Deploying for a customer within POC..

Hi All. Do you have PoSH documentation about how to copy volumes from protection group snapshots and attach the copies to different VMs in a vVol environment? I found your docs about how to do it with regular volume snapshots, but not PG snapshots.5.1KViews0likes44Comments<!here> I am facing a very weird issue. While using
!here I am facing a very weird issue. While using 2.x get volumes api with FlashArray I am getting a common volume called `pure-protocol-endpoint` even though I am not able to see the volume inside the array under volume list4.2KViews0likes36CommentsVeeam v13 Integration and Plugin
Hi Everyone, We're new Pure customers this year and have two Flasharray C models, one for virtual infrastructure and the other will be used solely as a storage repository to back up those virtual machines using Veeam Backup and Replication. Our plan is to move away from the current windows-based Veeam v12 in favor of Veeam v13 hardened Linux appliances. We're in the design phase now but have Veeam v13 working great in separate environment with VMware and HPE Nimble. Our question is around Pure Storage and Veeam v13 integration and Plugin support. Veeam's product team mentions there is native integrations in v12, but that storage vendors should be "adopting USAPI" going forward. Is this something that Pure is working on, or maybe already has completed with Veeam Backup and Replication v13?Solved7.3KViews6likes34CommentsSQL within VMware
If we are setting up SQL within vmware using NVME vvols and NVME controllers on the VM, is there a reason to have your data/log/tempdb volumes on separate virtual NVME storage controllers (for reference: https://www.nocentino.com/posts/2021-09-27-sqlserver-vms-best-practices/#vm-configuration)? Or do those benefits not really translate over when doing NVME storage protocols?Solved3.6KViews0likes24CommentsI've been looking for the past few weeks and I just
I've been looking for the past few weeks and I just end up more confused.Solved2.8KViews0likes22CommentsIs the concept of "refreshing" volume groups possible
Is the concept of "refreshing" volume groups possible on an existing copy of a volume group? Let me rephrase. Say I setup a volume group (VG) of 24 volumes (PRD01) that are for a production database. I want to snapshot that group of 24 volumes and create a copy of it to repurpose as a prod support DB copy (COPY01) and another copy to mount on another server to get backed up (COPY02). When its time to backup the server again can I refresh the data of PRD01 group to COPY02?3KViews0likes18Comments
