[ovirt-users] Fwd: RE: FC QLogic question

Bugger, spoke to soon…. One host sees the LUNs the other doesn’t.  Same builds of ovirt-node.  Both dell 2950s, and both qlogic cards…  but one says


Sep  9 08:12:23 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0c:00.0]-00fb:1: QLogic QLE2460 - QLogic 4GB FC Single-Port PCI-E HBA for IBM System x.

And further down the log this  (this one does not find the LUNS)

Sep  9 08:12:24 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0c:00.0]-d001:1: Firmware dump saved to temp buffer (1/ffffc90013d9e000).

Sep  9 08:12:32 localhost kdump: mkdumprd: failed to make kdump initrd
Sep  9 08:12:32 localhost lldpad: config file failed to load,

And the one that does find the LUNS is

Sep 11 08:33:39 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0a:00.0]-00fb:0: QLogic QLE2460 - SG-(X)PCIE1FC-QF4, Sun StorageTek 4 Gb FC Enterprise PCI-Express Single Channel.

And a little further down it discovers the LUNs

Sep 11 08:33:39 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0e:00.0]-505f:1: Link is operational (4 Gbps).
Sep 11 08:33:39 localhost kernel: scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access     DGC      LUNZ             0216 PQ: 0 ANSI: 4

Sep 11 08:33:39 localhost kernel: scsi 1:0:0:11: Direct-Access     DGC      RAID 1           0216 PQ: 0 ANSI: 4
Sep 11 08:33:39 localhost kernel: scsi 1:0:0:51: Direct-Access     DGC      RAID 1           0216 PQ: 0 ANSI: 4


So, I am thinking maybe different firmware levels on these cards and the first one for IBM systems has different firmware?  As it seems to be throwing more errors.   Should I try to add the firmware?  And if so I know it goes in /lib/firmware but then the boot image needs to be updated I think and I don’t know how to do that… or am I barking up the wrong tree.

Thanks again for the help.

Hmmm… I’ve just gone to add a storage domain and in the admin portal and bingo bango, all my LUNs appeared.

Just wiping out everything from my last lab now.

Thanks everyone, I am not quite sure why it started working, but knowing that the ovirt-node was seeing the LUNs prompted me to continue.

Thanks all for the help.

Bill

This could also be an selinux issue with FC on the node, I've hit that one before.
Especially since the luns do show up with multipath -ll
Could be as simple as flipping a sanlock related selinux boolean.

A quick test would be to boot in permissive mode.
See http://www.ovirt.org/Node_Troubleshooting#SELinux for some more information.
