Limitations
This section lists issues that may affect the configuration or repair of the
storage system.
General limitations
Virtual disks provided by the AX4-5 series storage system to be used for
snapshot operations with VMware ESX Server must be configured on an
ESX Server system as raw device mappings (RDMs). Virtual devices that
are not used for snapshot operations may reside on Virtual Machine File
System (VMFS) Volumes.
Navisphere Express limitations
The following configuration limitations and caveats apply when an
AX4-5 series storage system is managed using Navisphere Express and
virtual disks that use VMware ESX Server are to have snapshots created.
Snapshots cannot be assigned to ESX 2.X Server, but may either be
presented to a physical server running an operating system of the
same type as the virtual machine for the source virtual disk or to a
similar virtual machine under ESX 3.x.
When using RDMs, the source virtual disk can be assigned to only
one ESX Server.
