VMware VAAI Block Certification for TrueNAS Storage
Client: Leading open-source storage solutions company | Solution: VMware VAAI block testing automation
Accelerating VMware certification for enterprise-ready storage
TrueNAS needed VMware VAAI certification to strengthen its standing in virtualized data environments. Manual test cycles and fragmented validation slowed progress. Calsoft built a structured automation setup to complete the certification process efficiently and accurately.
Solution
Calsoft designed and executed an automated VMware Workbench framework to streamline the certification workflow for TrueNAS iSCSI block storage.
- Established VMware-aligned testbed for consistent results
- Automated test lifecycle with Workbench integration
- Validated iSCSI primitives including ATS, XCOPY, Write Same
- Created detailed compliance and reporting framework
This approach ensured repeatable tests, traceable results, and smooth certification submission.
