Greetings all!
Looking for some help here with a strange storage issue I’m seeing.
Our ESXi 5.01 hosts are fiber connected with qlogic hbas to an IBM XIV SAN, through IBM SVC clusters.
The storage team moved some of the ESX LUNs (RDMs and VMFS datastores) from one SVC I/O group to another. The LUN IDs aren’t changing—just the targets.
The trouble is, ESXi isn’t recognizing the updated targets. It sees the paths of the old targets and it sees them as active; but, we can’t get the hosts to update the targets.
We’ve tried moving the LUNs with all the hosts accessing these LUNs being powered off, and we’ve tried it with them being powered on. We’ve tried multiple rescans with no change.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
