The new VASA specification for VVols has been under development by VMware for over 6 years and it\u2019s up to storage vendors to set their own development pace for supporting it. In this post I\u2019ll provide an update on how each storage vendor is positioned to support VVols, this is entirely based on what is published in the VVols HCL (see below figure) and some research I have done. It will not cover things like the capabilities and scalability for VVols that is up to each vendor to dictate what they are capable of doing with VVols and how many VVols that they can support on a storage array.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href='http:\/\/advocacy.vmware.com' target='_blank' rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VMware Social Media Advocacy<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An overview of current storage vendor support for VMware Virtual Volumes (VVols) [vsphere-land.com] An overview of current storage vendor support&#8230; VMware\u2019s new external storage architecture, Virtual Volumes (VVols), turned 2 years old this month as it launched as part of vSphere 6.0.
