Managing VDS/VSS access
Use this action to configure the Microsoft VDS/VSS host list for the management services in
your SAN storage system. Only hosts in the VDS/VSS host list can perform provisioning operations through the management service, such as creating volumes
and snapshots. Each management service can have a different host list.
Note: Normally, you do not need to add hosts to the host list.
The Adaptec Storage Manager installer updates the host list when it installs the VDS/VSS providers. However, you must add hosts to the list
if you are using third-party VDS provisioning tools or any VSS requesters.
For more information, see your Microsoft VDS/VSS documentation.
To configure the VDS/VSS host list:
- In the Enterprise view, click
(management service) that you want to configure.
- Right click management service actions
Manage VDS/VSS access. The "VDS/VSS Access" window opens.
- Click
; the "Enable VDS/VSS Access from this host" window opens.
Then, add hosts to the host list.
Note: To remove a host from the
host list, click

- Repeat step 3 to add another host to the host list.
- Click OK.
