WORM like capabilities on VMAX

Hi,

Does the VMAX support WORM like capabilities ? Has anyone implemented this ?

Thanks and regards

No, vmax was never designed as a compliance type array. There is no way make a Lun read only and guarantee it will not be updated.

A symm device can be set to read only status but can just as easily set back to read write. So no real security to prevent updating.

front-end your VMAX with a gateway where you can enable file-level retention
