Hi all,
I tried to install the Hosted-Engine on a FC lun, and the first time,
it failed at the end because of a sanlock issue.
So I fixed it and the re-deoployed from scratch until this new issue
[ ERROR ] Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed". Fault detail is
"[Physical device initialization failed. Please check that the device is
empty and accessible by the host.]". HTTP response code is 400.
Before, I found that the lun [2] was used:
[ INFO ] ok: [localhost]
The following luns have been found on the requested target:
[1] 36006016039a142001792ac5b1b9e513a 1024GiB
DGC VRAID
status: free, paths: 8 active
[2] 36006016039a142006755b25b7505d26b 100GiB DGC
VRAID
status: used, paths: 8 active
So it was the good explanation for the failure.
Following the admin guide, I cleaned up the lun using
|# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/||36006016039a142006755b25b7505d26b bs=1M count=200
oflag=direct|
And re-deployed it until it complains the device was not empty despite
of before. The script still reported that the status of the lun was "used"
Finally, I rebooted the host, and that time the script considered the
lun status as free.
So there is somewhere a bit of code into the ansible script that keeps
the old status of the lun before dd, until rebooting.
Is there an other way to refresh the lun status after dd ?

Hello,
for removing a volume i usually disable the logical volume (vgremove)
and then the physical volume (pvremove). At this point i have the
device marked as clean.

Hi Luca, great idea!
But a dd is more than a lvremove...
But as well it could mean that the deploy script may look for a
particular vg which stays present after the dd. Rebooting forces the
vgscan not to find this particular vg...
So vgremove is really the good way to clean up a lun, and it should be
the official way into the admin guide
