Install the VASA provider in order to support using vVols with
PowerFlex.
In order to use vVols with
PowerFlex, you must install the VASA provider. In Linux-based systems, you can choose to install the VASA provider during installation of
PowerFlex using the
PowerFlex Installer. At that point, select whether to use one or three VASA providers. If you want your VASA support to be highly available (HA), which is the mode intended for production use, you should install three VASA providers. Using one VASA provider as a standalone is intended only for lab environments. In the case of an existing
PowerFlex system, you can add VASA support by extending the existing cluster by adding one or three VASA providers. This is also done by creating a CSV file and using the
PowerFlex Installer.
If you choose to use three VASA providers, this requires additional information to be included in the CSV file for installation in the
PowerFlex Installer.
After installing the VASA provider, you must register the VASA provider in the vCenter. For more information, see the
Configure and Customize Dell PowerFlex guide.
Once the VASA provider is installed, the
PowerFlex Gateway will trigger Secure Remote Services/SNMP alerts in case any of the installed VASA providers is down or has any health problems.
