VMC on AWS Requirements
Before registering your VMC on AWS vCenter as a data source, ensure that it meets the software versions, user privilege, and firewall port requirements.
For information on the supported cloud regions where you can back up this source, see Supported Workloads and Cloud Regions.
Supported Software
SDDC Version 1.22 is supported.
User Privileges for VMware Cloud Sources
To protect your VMC on AWS SDDC, you need a user account with the CloudAdmin role. For information on the privileges of a CloudAdmin, see CloudAdmin Privileges.
Firewall Ports
Ensure the firewall ports are open to allow communication between the Cohesity SaaS Connector(s) and the VMC in the AWS environment.
Considerations
-
Protection of the following is not supported:
-
VMs on NFS datastores.
-
VMs with disks on the IDE controller.
-
-
Recovery from on-premises vCenter to VMC on AWS SDDC or VMC on AWS SDDC to on-premises vCenter is not supported.
-
We recommend that you have one SaaS Connector for each ESXi host.
These requirements are subject to change.
