Answer

  • SIOC only works with standard iSCSI datastores.
  • It does not work with VVOLs.
  • The job of SIOC is to adjust QOS values on standard iSCSI SolidFire volumes when virtual machine events occur, such as power on/off and guest restart/shutdown.
  • The VASA provider on the storage array is required for VVOLS. VASA is a standard part of Element.
  • VCP and SIOC are not required for VVOLS.
  • Enabling VVOLS on the storage cluster and registering the storage cluster VASA URL with vCenter is required for VVOLS.
