Reservation Considerations
VMware Aria Automation
8 includes
these reservation considerations. In
VMware Aria Automation
8,
reservations use cloud zones for compute policies, storage profiles to storage policies,
and network profiles for network policies. These constructs are linked together using
tags. In VMware Aria Automation
8,
cloud zones are linked to one or more projects.During reservation migration:
- The compute components are migrated as a cloud zone and assigned a tag.
- The storage components are migrated as one or more storage profiles and assigned the previously created tag.
- The network components are migrated as a network profile and assigned the previously created tag.
- The cloud zone is attached to the project.
If the reservation contains a
reservation policy, a capability tag is also assigned to the cloud zone to represent
the policy post migration.
VMware Aria Automation
8 also introduces default storage profiles. When a migrated
reservation contains multiple storage profiles, VMware Aria Automation
8 assigns one as a default storage profile.
Before provisioning, ensure that the correct storage profile is selected as default. If
it is not, select the check box next to the desired storage profile under the
reservation.In vRealize
Automation 7, Amazon reservations cannot configure storage placement policies. In
VMware Aria Automation
8, the
migration assistant tool does not create storage profiles during Amazon reservation
migrations. Only enabled
storage paths are migrated to
VMware Aria Automation
8. Disabled storage paths are not migrated to
VMware Aria Automation
8.
