  1. From the Virtual Machine view and Summary Tab, there is a FlashArray widget box. This will show whether or not the VM has Undelete Protection. Undelete Protection means that there is currently a FlashArray Snapshot of this VMs Config vVol.

  2. On the Virtual Machine's Configure Page, there is a Pure Storage Virtual Volumes tab.

    The page will allow end users to run the workflows to Import a virtual disk (vVol), restore a destroyed vVol or to Overwrite an existing vVol. Additionally the page contains important information about the VMs Data vVols. Some of the important information here would be the Virtual Device (SCSI controller connection), the vVol Datastore that the vVol is on, which Array the vVol is on and the FlashArray Volume Group Name and Volume name.
