## FAQ
1. The restore would fail if the K8s node VMs are placed in any sub-folders of vSphere VM inventory.
1. Workaround: moving node VMs to the top level of VM inventory. (for users of the release v1.0.0)
2. Solution: the issue was resolved post the release v1.0.0 in the master branch at commit 1c3dd7e20c3198e4a94a5a17874d4c474b48c2e2.
2. The restore might possibly place the restored PVs in a vSphere datastore which is imcompatible with the StorageClass
specified in the restored PVC, as we don't rely on the StorageClass for the PV placement on restore in the release v1.0.0.
A fix to the PV placement based on the StorageClass can be expected in the next release.
3. To use the plugin v1.0.0 in a TKG cluster, the secret of vSphere CSI credential, i.e., csi-vsphere-config, need to be renamed
to, vsphere-config-secret. Since for the release v1.0.0, the configuration in Vanilla k8s setup was used as a reference
and the logic about retrieving VC credential is hardcoded to retrive the vSphere CSI credential, vsphere-config-secret,
in the `kube-system` namespace. A fix can be expected in the next release.
