"Maintenance Mode" using C# , Fat client

Hi All,

I understand there are 3 options to select when putting host into MM using Webclient . Like many others, I still use C# client for daily tasks.

What option does it choose when putting host into MM using C# client? Is it default option "Ensure accessibility"?

Many Thanks!

Max

Hello Max,

Yes, it uses 'Ensure Accessibility' when entering Maintenance Mode from the C# client (or via CLI with no mode option specified).

As an aside: if doing a lot of tasks using C# I would advise periodically checking that Storage Policies are being properly applied to everything, especially with regard to unintended Thick Objects.

Please move to the WebClient (or H5 client in the near future). vSAN functionality is not exposed in the C# client and things like "thick" provisioning will definitely impact the expected behaviour.
