If you like to locate all your vcenter add-ons in one location, you may notice this is problematic. The NetApp VASA Provider 1.0 is no exception. By default, the VASA provider listens on TCP/8443. Bad move, NetApp.
Unlike everyone else who says just to install it somewhere else, I leveraged my extremely stubborn streak and discovered if you modify the port number in this file, and start the service - it works flawlessly:
%programfiles%\netapp\vasa\config\vasa.properties
I changed the following line to port 8444 (from 8443)
https.port=8444
If vCenter is already running and you installed the VASA provider - the VASA provider won't start until you make this change. or reboot :) And then you'll get this:
The VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 6 million time(s).
Enjoy!
