You can create storage containers in the Element UI and discover them in vCenter. You must create at least one storage container to begin provisioning VVol-backed virtual machines.
You have enabled VVols functionality in the Element UI for the cluster.
-
Select VVols > Storage Containers.
-
Click the Create Storage Containers button.
-
Enter storage container information in the Create a New Storage Container dialog box:
-
Enter a name for the storage container.
-
Configure initiator and target secrets for CHAP.
Leave the CHAP Settings fields blank to automatically generate secrets. -
Click the Create Storage Container button.
-
-
Verify that the new storage container appears in the list in the Storage Containers sub-tab.
Because a NetApp Element account ID is created automatically and assigned to the storage container, it is not necessary to manually create an account.
