Can SCV configuration settings be inherited to newer version SCV appliance?
Applies to
- SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere (SCV)
- Deploying newer version of SCV appliance separately from existing SCV appliance
Answer
No, configuration settings cannot be inherited from the old SCV appliance to the new one.
Note:
- Even if deploying new SCV appliance, manual restore can be performed from existing Snapshot copies on ONTAP.
- Retention setting of new SCV does not delete existing Snapshot copies, so unnecessary Snapshot copies must be deleted using
volume snapshot delete
or ONTAP System Manager.
