Applies to

  • ONTAP Select

Issue

  • Adding virtual disks through VMWare shows a much lower usable capacity than the disk size that was added in System Manager and the CLI.
Example
  • A 6TB virtual disk was added through vCenter but System Manager in Select only shows ~7GB usable for that specific disk.
