When is VASA 3.0 planned (ABR)

Hi,

any information about when EMC Storage will supprt Array-Bases Replication as defined in VASA 3.0? Today only Nimble and HPE 3PAR support it and customers are getting interested in that.

Regards

Oliver

    VASA 3.0 supported in the current code ( 4.1.1 -Released in Feb).

    Ofcourse, to utilize this feature, vSphere 6.5 is a minimum requirement.

    VASA 3.0 compliance doesnt mean that vVol replication is implemented

    Let me check more on this.

    Can you let me know the vsphere and esxi versions?.

    I quickly tested in lab and it appears that, vasa 3.0 but API is still 2.0 on 4.1.1.

    Let me research more about this on which code may have the vasa api 3.0.

    Hello,

    We will support VASA 3.0 without native vVOL replication in the upcoming service pack for Unity that will be released later this month.

    Thanks
