Unity Vvole Configuration issues

Hi,

I have problem with this vvole configurations.

i created 32TB vmware datastore on my unity 300 box.after that i created 2 capability profiles.(26TB and

6TB).

After that i will tried to create new datastore on vcenter.i need to add 26TB capacity on my vmware but its showing 16TB only.

It has a limitation?

How can i mount Total capacity on my vcenter?

Thanks

    Are you sure you are reading the VMware info correctly ?

    I think the "Maximum Disk Size" means that 16TB is the max for a single vVol and NOT the size of the vVol data store.

    Are you trying to create a VM with a disk larger than 16TB ?

    16TB is the max for a single vVol - not for the vVol data store

    Hi

    Sorry for delay reply.

    VM disk size 16TB its correct,but datastore cant cerate more than 16 TB.

    But now we are using block storage for vmware.

    Thanks
