VMware Site Recovery Manager with ONTAP

Summary

Original TR 4264 specifies that SRA can only protect intercluster relationships. Can we include that specification here as well?

Public issues must not contain sensitive information

Working on it.,

The original text appears to have been as follows: “In NetApp Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode, the NetApp SRA pairs physical controllers at the protected site and at the recovery site. However, clustered Data ONTAP pairs SVMs. Therefore, communication is with the SVM, and the SRM is not aware of the individual controllers. Clustered Data ONTAP allows you to pair SVMs in the same cluster, but SRM does not. To successfully complete array configuration, you must pair two SVMs from separate clustered Data ONTAP clusters”

Checking with engineering to understand a possible workaround, will update doc next week most likely.
