Error "Create VMFS datastore"

$

0

Hi.

 

Im having trouble adding my HP MSA2000fc storage in VMware.

The LUN has been mapped to LUN101 and i VMware the HBA finds the LUN (Because im troubleshooting im only using 1 cable directly from HBA to MSA controller)

2.jpg

As you can see, the LUN is found.

 

Then i try and add it as VMFS-5 and get this error

Afterwards i check the patition and it is what it shows:

 

~ # partedUtil getptbl /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

unknown

218606 255 63 3511912704

 

I've also tried mklabel with gpt and get this error.

 

~ # partedUtil mklabel /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

gpt

Error: Connection timed out during write on /dev/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

WriteNewPtable: Unable to commit to device /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

 

msdos works, but im still not able to mount it in VMware

 

~ # partedUtil mklabel /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

msdos

~ # partedUtil getptbl /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600c0ff000da0c4b0c85395301000000

msdos

218606 255 63 3511912704

 

And some logs!

On the MSA i've done a "restore defaults factory" and afterwards configured it as basic as possible.

LUN 101 read/write. (There is not much to chance in the webinterface).

I've done a 4 disk RAID5 and 12 disk RAID6, just to be sure the disks were wiped.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Regards Michael.
