VMware vSAN File Services plug-in configuration prerequisites

Before you configure the VMware vSAN File Services plug-in, verify the following:

  • Ensure that a supported version of vSAN is installed on the vCenter server.

  • For the list of all the supported versions of vSAN, refer to the NetBackup Snapshot Manager section in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List (HCL).

  • A user account exists which has the permissions to invoke the vSAN REST APIs and all snapshot operations on the vCenter server.

  • File services and file domains must be configured on the vSAN cluster.
