iSCSI storage on VIA and VSA

[matteu]

Hello,

If I understand correctly, since v13.1 it's possible to connect iSCSI from Veeam appliance.
I tried to connect it on my VSA server, but then I see I cannot use it for Hardened linux repository but only as "Normal" linux repository.

Is it something expected ?

That mean if I add storage on my VSA as iSCSI/FC I can only use it as "normal" XFS filesystem and use fast clone to save some space (better than nfs) but no immutability.
If I use VIA and connect storage, it should work with immutability enabled it should work right ?

Can you also confirm me if I have to choose veeam hardened repisitory during installation as role or veeam infrastructure appliance with iscsi / fc ?
Thanks

You will need to build a hardened Linux system to mount iSCSI. THe Linux system mounts the iSCSI LUN(S), formats as XFS and creates the mountpoints. You can then add to VSA as a hardened Repo. with all of the bells and whistles.
