Known limitations in NetApp Console local deployment

Contributors netapp-tonias

Known limitations identify platforms, devices, or functions that are not supported by this release of the product, or that do not interoperate correctly with it. Review these limitations carefully.

These limitations are specific to the setup for the NetApp Console and administration: the agent, the software as a service (SaaS) platform, and more.

Console VM limitations

Possible conflict with IP addresses in the 10.42.0.0/16 and 10.43.0.0/16 ranges

NetApp Console local deployment uses fixed address space for inter-service communication. The IP range 10.42.0.0/16 and 10.43.0.0/16 are used for the internal network. Before deploying Console local deployment, ensure these IP ranges are not assigned to other VMs, DHCP scopes, DNS records, or load balancer VIP pools on the VLANs made available to the Console local deployment.

See Knowledge Base article Agent IP conflict with existing network for instructions on how to change the IP address of the agent’s interfaces.

Shared Linux hosts are not supported

The agent isn't supported on a VM that is shared with other applications. The VM must be dedicated to the agent software.

Third-party agents and extensions

Third-party agents or VM extensions are not supported on the agent VM.
