VMWare VVols Implementation Guide

VMware VVols on HPE Nimble Storage Implementation Guide describes VMware virtual volumes (VVols), a storage policy-based framework that is based on the VASA management protocol. VVols are unique in that each virtual disk in a virtual machine (VM) is implemented with its own volume on the storage array. Storage Policy-Based Management (SPBM) enables protection and tuning at a much more granular level than is afforded by a monolithic Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) datastore. VVols consume storage from a resizable container on the array, alleviating the requirement to manage, provision, and present multiple LUNs for varying workloads.
