XENServer 6 and Dell MD3600i

[wesleyw]

I've just finished installing version 6 on my two R710s The first connected fine to the MD3600i the second brings up an error SR Backend failure 47 no such device.

 

Any ideas on what could have happened?

I have an older MD3000i and you can manually add the servers it is allowed to see however the options aren't the same for this one for some reason?

@wesleyw:

 

Did you upgrade or install from new?

 

Just done the upgrade from 5.6SP2 on my Dell 3 host pool and had problems with the rolling pool upgrade tool so had to go to manual upgrade and had to reconfigure settings on the second and third host but all is well.

 

It could be that you may have to reconfigure the connection on your second host.

 

Also I wouldnt recommend pooling your 2 hosts and running HA as this has an inherent fault which is documented on the Citrix website.

Here is a list of backend error codes:

They might help

Well I managed to add the iqn of the other host to the "host" in MD3600i config a complete change of setup to the old one. As for version 6 I imported all my VMservers (except for the DCs) and then started the upgrade of Xentools this broke the network connection of the Exchange server and after a reboot blue screened the system every time not sure why though. Reimporting now.
