Verify datastore compliance with the mapped storage capability profile
You can quickly verify whether your datastores are compliant with the storage capability profiles that are mapped to the datastores.
-
You must have registered your VASA Provider instance with Virtual Storage Console for VMware vSphere (VSC).
-
VSC must have discovered your storage.
-
From the VSC Home page, click Storage Mapping.
-
Review the information in the Compliance Status column to identify non-compliant datastores and review the alerts for non-compliance reason.
When you click the COMPLIANCE CHECK button, VSC performs a rediscovery operation for all of the storage, which might take few minutes.
If a datastore is no longer compliant with its profile, then the Compliance Status column displays an alert stating the reason for non-compliance. For example, a profile might require compression. If that setting has been changed on the storage, compression is no longer used, and the datastore is non-compliant.
When you discover a datastore that is not compliant with its profile, you can modify the settings on the volume backing the datastore to make the datastore compliant, or you can assign a new profile to the datastore.
You can modify the settings from the Storage Capability Profile page.
