  • 1.  VVOL Creation Failure

    Posted May 05, 2023 09:12 PM

    Hi,

    NetApp 9.8 P18 with VCSA 8.0 U1,

    When creating a new VVOL volume, getting the following error:

    roynaim_0-1683320927151.png

    But this is all I get in the events:

     

    roynaim_1-1683321097020.png

     

    Where do I begin?

    Hi, 

     

    You can use the esxcli storage vvol commands to troubleshoot your Virtual Volumes environment.

    You can find it here:

    Thanks,

    That's really general,

    Something specific I should look into?

    ,

    Could you please let us know the NetApp hardware you are using?

    Also, could you please attach /var/log/vmkernel.log file from the ESXI on your next reply? Try to add the VVol again to generate new logs.
