Protocol Endpoint (PE) Layer *Many VMs multiplexed
to a single Datastore
1-n mapping of
VM to a VVol
1. Create fixed-size, uniform LUNs
2. Lack of granular data services
3. Complex/long administration cycles
4. LUN/Volume centric storage configurations vs VM focused
1. Create VVols to match VM requirements
2. VM-centric finer management & offload within array
3. Simple assured policy provisioning & operations
4. VM consumption, configuration, visibility manageability
