Hi everyone, our big show stopper for moving to vvol
Hi everyone, our big show stopper for moving to vvol always has been the lack of SAN based backup support in VDDK/VADP. As to my surprise I noted today, that with VDDK 8.0.3 it is even supported with NVMe-oF https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/rn/vddk-803-release-notes.html
So, as the release notes on vmware‘s side are a little bit vague, does anyone know when vvol backup/restore support over SAN transport was introduced? VDDK 8.0 says it’s not supported. That’s the last clear statement I found before 8.3 supporting all of it.
- Non nvme would also be great, just any way using vvols with san backup fits our use case
