Protocols Vscan svm.uuid scanner-pools endpoint overview

Overview

A scanner-pool defines the Vscan servers and privileged users that can connect to SVMs and a scanner policy or role determines whether a scanner-pool is active. You can configure a scanner-pool to be used on the local cluster or any other cluster in an MCC/DR setup.
