VMNSDg agent
The VMNSDg (Volume Manager Non-Shared Diskgroup) agent manages dynamic
disk groups and mounts created on local (non-shared) and non-SCSI storage, which
can work without reservation.
The agent imports, monitors, and deports a dynamic disk group configured using
Storage Foundation for Windows. The agent makes the disk group highly available.
The agent is represented by the VMNSDg resource type.
In combination with the VMwareDisks resource, the VMNSDg agent is responsible
for:
■
■
During import operation, ensure that the disks newly attached to the virtual
machine are accessible to Windows.
During deport operation, prepare the disks for the detach operation from the
virtual machine.
