Hi,
Having deployed VEEAM backup on our ESXi 4.1 vSphere environment with iSCSI Direct SAN Access, we are observing datastore alarms in vCenter:
Alert
Non-VI workload detected on the datastore
Has anyone else experienced the same? We have the SAN permitted initiators locked down with CHAP and IQN names, so I know exactly the devices that are connecting and its only vCenter-managed ESXi hosts and VEEAM. I think in this scenario disabling the alarm is OK?
Thoughts? Experiences?
Thanks

Re: Non-VI Workloads Detected...
Hello Stephen,
I believe you can ignore those alarms unless there are some real misconfigurations or I/O performance issues caused by a non-ESX workload. Here is a corresponding VMware KB article for further reading: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/micros ... Id=1020651
Thanks!
