Question: How to enable First Class Disk Service #6

Open dmc5179 opened 4 years ago

dmc5179 commented 4 years ago

I'm working on getting the VMWare CSI driver installed on kubernetes. The biggest issue I'm running into right now is that the CSI pods say that the FCD service is not available. I'm not enough of a VMWare guru to know how to turn it on. Does FCD require vSAN? I started using this tool to take kube out of the picture and just try to talk to the vCenter API about FCDs directly. So far when I run safekeeping with ivd -list it just hangs and times out. I suspect because the FCD service is not there.

What vcenter version are you running? FCD is supported since 6.5 but you need 6.7U2 to have something that really works with FCD

dmc5179 commented 4 years ago

We are running 6.7U3
