Hi,
Sorry, I got waylaid at the end of yesterday - catching up... (sorry for length of thread
now as well, but would like to get to the bottom of this)
Have seen posts about ovirt-node... I personally like the idea and hope that it continues
to develop. Having to load a Linux distro up and then put ovirt hypervisor on it is more
work and then you need to worry about upgrading the linux distro and ovirt and suddenly
ovirt doesn't run on the distro you have and you start over. IMHO anyway.
All of the LUN names are listed in /dev/mapper
/etc/multipath.conf is thus
# RHEV REVISION 1.0
defaults {
polling_interval 5
getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace
--device=/dev/%n"
no_path_retry fail
user_friendly_names no
flush_on_last_del yes
fast_io_fail_tmo 5
dev_loss_tmo 30
max_fds 4096
}
devices {
device {
vendor "HITACHI"
product "DF.*"
getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace
--device=/dev/%n"
}
device {
vendor "COMPELNT"
product "Compellent Vol"
no_path_retry fail
}
}
But on the multipath -ll round robin is enabled...
I can't see how the firmware missing can be a problem if all my disks are appearing on
node. Some cards don't need to be flashed, they can be if needed but if my LUNs are
appearing, then I assume it is working.
Sorry, I am very new to node and not much experience with FC under Linux, so trying to get
up to speed on commands...
Which ovirt am Iusing? Not sure what you want back, uname -a yields
2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_6
The iso I used is ovirt-node-iso-3.4-20140423.0.el6.iso from the releases/stable/iso
folder - I am fairly sure, there are two ISOs there. Unfortunately I am not in the office
today and can't get to the desktop where I burned the ISOs from...
Thanks
Bill

Bill has to tell, but I think so. I suggested to him this might be
Ah, I mixed you an Bill up in the thread.
because of dm-multipath, multipath.conf might blacklist here. My
nodes
are plain EL6 and I have multipath enabled - but I do not know if
ovirt-node filters for dm-mp devnodes only by default (this would make
sense because of iscsi-multipathing in ovirt 3.4).
Well, we did some multipath changes lately. Let#s see what Bill says:
Bill,
what node are you using?
What does multipath -l say?
How does /dev/mapper/* and /dev/multipath.conf look like?
And is the disk appearing on Node and/or Engine?
Thanks!
fabian
Maybe you can help out on this topic?
Thanks!
