Device path status in VMware turns into Standby when ana-reporting & enable-ha are enabled on a subsystem

[swariri]

We have exposed a 4 TB namespace to VMware client using NVME TCP protocol from a Ceph cluster.
Setup works fine till the time ana-reporting & enable-ha are disabled on a subsystem.
But when those are enabled on a ceph cluster to achieve multipathing, device path status turns into standby in VMware.

Setup details -
ceph version - 18.2.2 (531c0d11a1c5d39fbfe6aa8a521f023abf3bf3e2) reef (stable)
Protocol- NVME TCP
Hypervisor: VMware ESXi, 7.0.3, 23307199
nvmeof & nvmeof-cli version - 1.0.0

Is TCP multipathing supported on a Ceph cluster ?

The HA feature is not yet merged upstream on Ceph side. Hopefully it is getting very close. See this PR - ceph/ceph#54671. If you want to test HA, you must build Ceph that includes this PR.
And you should let the Ceph nvmeof monitor define ANA states.

Thanks for the reply. This would be help to pause further troubleshooting.
