Hi. I will be starting an SRM deployment soon with 5.5 and Dell Compellent using their SRA. However what I have been reading leads me to believe that when this is install, I will not be able to vMotion nor Storage vMotion.
From the Dell Compellent SRA documentation:
Dell Compellent SRA Limitations
The following features are not supported by the Dell Compellent SRA:
- Storage Center Live Volumes
- Storage Center Synchronous Replications
- VMware Consistency Groups
- VMware Consistent Images
And from the SRM documentation:
If your storage array supports consistency groups, SRM is compatible with vSphere Storage DRS and vSphere Storage vMotion. You can use Storage DRS and Storage vMotion to move virtual machine files within a consistency group that SRM protects. If your storage array does not support consistency groups, you cannot use Storage DRS and Storage vMotion in combination with SRM.
So am I reading right that if I have SRM installed, any protected vms cannot be vmotioned or storage vmotioned??
Thanks!
