Unity VSA Block and File SRA downloads?

Hello FS-Unity,

Have you downloaded full version of SRM or SRDF?

@DELL-Sam L​ I have SRM, I need the SRA plugin to make it work...

EMC Unity File SRA 6.0.1.85 and EMC Unity Block SRA 5.0.4.146
These used to be hosted on the VMware site, but post Broadcom acquisition it is now
"Customer should download the SRA from vendor websites".
Dell does not appear to be hosting these files anywhere?

I have the same problem... I need to download the SRA for Unity 400, and I can't find it anywhere.

Hello FS-Unity,

Dell doesn’t those files anymore, once Broadcom took over host them.

Hello FS-Unity,

Have you tried to reach out to Broadcom for assistance? I also have looked and seen that all our info points to Broadcom as well.

Hello,

I've also been chasing the EMC Unity Block SRA. Last week I opened a support ticket with VMware regarding the availability of the SRA. All of the Dell documentation includes a VMware URL, but that URL is no longer valid (post-Broadcom acquisition). The VMware technician says that the SRA is available through Dell and he gives me a contact name/email. I contact that Dell person and they reply that I need to create an RPQ and then they will be able to give me the SRA. Not knowing what an RPQ is, I contact Dell Unity support. The Dell technician says that they can create an RPQ but they also mention that it may no longer be applicable for the SRA. The reason being that the Unity SRA was end of life in 2019 and it was only verified to work with Unity OE 5.2 (we are on the latest OE, v5.4.1).

This totally blows my mind as we just bought/received these Unity XT 380's in February. Is there any hope of getting the Unity and SRM talking (with a new SRA or the older one if it's advisable to try it with our newer OE)?

Thanks

Hello UnityXT380-1234,

I am checking to see if there are any issues with running the older SRA with newer unity code. We are also looking into RPQ to see if that will resolve your issues as well.

@DELL-Sam L​ 

Thanks, Sam. Appreciate the help!

@DELL-Sam L​ 

Just checking in to see if there's any updates or feedback to report on this?

Thanks again.

Hello UnityXT380-1234,

I am checking to see if it has been resolved by new deadline.

Need link for EMC Unity File SRA 6.0.1.85 and EMC Unity Block SRA 5.0.4.146 , can anyone help

Hello ashishph,

With SRA for Dell Unity is a component that facilitates integration between VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) and Dell Unity storage systems. It enables the management of replication and disaster recovery processes. Do you have SRM installed? As you will need to use SRM to install SRA. There is not any links for the versions of unity SRA that you are looking for.

@DELL-Sam L​ ,

Hi Sam, thanks for the response, I have already installed the SRM and unity replication is also in place and I need SRA now to manage block replication from SRM, please help me with the link to download SRA  unity (v5.0.4.146) or help me with the procedure for the SRA download,

Broadcom no longer providing the link for SRA now as per below article. (https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/312663/vmware-live-site-recovery-vlsr-storage-r.html)

Hello ashishph,

Which unity system do you have and what is your current OE?
