With the storage DRS workflows, you perform storage-related operations, such as creating and configuring a datastore cluster, removing a datastore from cluster, adding storage to a cluster, and others.
To access these workflows, navigate to
and enter the vcenter and storage_drs tags in the workflow search box.Workflow Name | Description |
---|---|
Add datastore to cluster | Adds datastores to a datastore cluster. Datastores must be able to connect to all hosts to be included in the datastore cluster. Datastores must have the same connection type to reside within a datastore cluster. |
Change Storage DRS per virtual machine configuration | Sets Storage DRS settings for each virtual machine. |
Configure datastore cluster | Configures datastore cluster setting values for automation and runtime rules. |
Create simple datastore cluster | Creates a simple datastore cluster with default configuration. The new datastore cluster contains no datastores. |
Create Storage DRS scheduled task | Creates a scheduled task for reconfiguring a datastore cluster. Only automation and runtime rules can be set. |
Create virtual machine anti-affinity rule | Creates an anti-affinity rule to indicate that all virtual disks of certain virtual machines must be kept on different datastores. |
Create VMDK anti-affinity rule | Creates a VMDK anti-affinity rule for a virtual machine that indicates which of its virtual disks must be kept on different datastores. The rule applies to the virtual disks of the selected virtual machine. |
Remove datastore cluster | Removes a datastore cluster. Removing a datastore cluster also removes all the settings and the alarms for the cluster from the vCenter Server system. |
Remove datastore from cluster | Removes a datastore from a datastore cluster and puts the datastore in a datastore folder. |
Remove Storage DRS scheduled task | Removes a scheduled Storage DRS task. |
Remove virtual machine anti-affinity rule | Removes a virtual machine anti-affinity rule for a given datastore cluster. |
Remove VMDK anti-affinity rule | Removes a VMDK anti-affinity rule for a given datastore cluster. |
