In case of LDM, use DiskRes and Mount. In case of a disaster recovery environment, use VVRSnap agent. See “VVRSnap agent” on page 41. In case vMotion and VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) need to be enabled in VCS clusters configured and deployed on virtual machines in VMware environment, use the VMwareDisks, VMNSDg, and NativeDisks agents. See “VMwareDisks agent” on page 43. See “VMNSDg agent” on page 46. See “NativeDisks agent” on page 49. In case of a NetApp storage environment, use NetAppFiler and NetAppSnapDrive. In case you want to monitor replication state of filer devices, use NetApp SnapMirror.
