Update the Default Storage Policy for a Cluster with Non-Compliant Policy

The VMware Cloud Console displays an alert if clusters in your SDDCs have a default storage policy that is not in compliance.

Keeping cluster storage policies in compliance is a best practice. A non-complaint storage policy could have a negative impact on SLA requirements.

You can correct this issue by updating your clusters to use a VMware managed storage policy, which keeps the default storage policy in compliance as the SLA scales. Or you can edit the cluster to apply a custom storage policy that complies with the SLA requirements. For more information about managed storage policies and the SLA requirements, see VMware Cloud on AWS Managed Storage Policy Profiles.
