Failed to add LUN storage

HI, I am trying to add a new storage and after selecting the LUN, I get the following message:

Call "HostDatastoreSystem.QueryVmfsDatastoreCreateOptions" of object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi '10.212.77.30' failed.

The LUN is 465 GB in size and it's hosted on a HP MSA60, I recreated the LUN several times and still not the same error, what could be the cause for it?

Resolution:

VMware cannot format some LUNS but windows can and once the logical unit number is in the format Windows, vmware can reformat

Create a virtual Windows machine test and fix a new hard drive and select the LUN as a raw device Mapping...

Connect to Windows VM Test

Open disk management

and re-run the analysis for the new drive

Format the new drive

VI - change the settings of the virtual machine and remove the new drive

Now, try to add it as a new storage device... This works.

  • Add new storage "opération TimedOut" with RDM LUN on host. Pls Help

    Hello

    Installation program:

    4 ESX 3.5 hosts each with 2 HBA adapter connected to the HP MSA1000.

    Question:

    I set up MSCS SQL 2000 with RDM through host, MSCS failover without problem, performance wise is not a problem at all too. But the problem is that if the MSCS SQL resource is managed by the Active virtual machine that is running on host1, I can navigate to storage / adding LUNs, set in shape of new LUN with no problems.

    If I want to add new storage on the other host "host2" I received the error "Tor time to ask"is it because of the resource ROW being busy serving the machine virtual active it is why the host not allowing do not change with the addition of new storage?

    Guests see these LUNs. I can add the data store or to do a new analysis also long the LUNS are not presented to the host. Also I can browse the data store, able to see the addition of Storge Wizard when adding new

    Data store and make a new analysis only on the host where the operation of the active node. Suppose the preseneted RDM LUN on host1 and host2 and VM SQL running on host1, I can only browse the data warehouses, a new analysis and add new storge to this host. I can't do the same thing with

    hosts2.

    But if I take these "RDM LUN" LUNS in host2, host3 and host4. I can do a rescan, adding other LUNS as the RDM presented to the virtual machine, able to see the add storage wizard.

    I googled the error and found that the Ontario server is question, or DNS

    I had similar questions to those two problems here where I couldn't add a data store as he would expire and I got the long startup time. I also use RDM which I use for MSCS in the whole of boxes 2. Here's a quote from my previous post in which I found a response that helped me. Changingthe SCSI retry time increased my boot time and allowed me to add one more time without the question of the time-out, data warehouses.

    Response to previous Post:

    I did some research and I think I've made some progress. I found that I get lots of SCSI errors in the VMkernel newspaper. I did some more research and found out that I can change the time retrying SCSI 80 to 10 and it has done wonders for my time to reboot. Now, instead of taking 20 minutes to start, it takes less than 5 minutes now. Much better. I made the change in the host-> advance-> SCSI--> SCSI configuration try again. 80 a the default and 10A was suggested as being a good value. It helped and I will keep an eye on what can make the effect, but so far it has helped with startup times.

  • Cannot add local storage of 2 of the 3 armies VM

    I added 9 300 disks in concert at 9 different hosts. They have SAN connections shared between them all, and now I wanted to add 300 locally to each. I got the readers in the server, restarted the first and F8 to enter the config of the car and he saw the car, I added and saved the configuration.

    Restarted and went into the VI. a host to the top, as well as virtual methods... went to the Config tab on the host, storage adapters and verfiied I could see the new drive. Went to the storage and click Add storage. Chose the disk/lun and the next screen showed me my local drive. He added, and everything was fine.

    Then, on the same server, I went through all the above steps, until he showed on the storage adapter properties page, and he was there... But when I go to the store page and add storage, it does not appear there. Only my existing device SAN disks are. I reread the HBA and drives are all showing under the Smart Array P400i vmhba0 again. but only the first showed when I went to add it in VI.

    I have returned a 2nd, deleted the player, readded it and still no luck... anyone seen this?

    Yes seen that before, suppose that you connect to your virtual center to add local storage? Connect your VI client directly to the host, then add local storage, it will then appear

  • "Backup failed. Not enough storage space.

    Original title: image

    W7 32-bit HP. Use the image via Control Panel with success for a long time. However, this morning received the message "backup failed. Not enough storage space. Have you checked and at least ten times more space on the destination like this drive would be necessary for the entire image.  The only change I've made since the last successful backup is to install an SSD on my computer as the main C drive.

    Thanks, but none of it has hit the problem!

    I now it worked. For the benefit of any person who has the problem, Image requires that there is enough space on the * source * system partition of the drive for the shadow file (when get "space insufficient" messages everyone (including me) assumes respect to the * destination drive!)  (Not so).

    This seems to happen to a lot of people who are for the first time in an SSD. Because I had previously shrunk the partition on my drive C primary, preparatory to mounting small SSD (112 GB), the system partition was too small for shadow of the image file.

    Under W7 disk management even if the main partition on the C drive could be reduced to create a space unallocated, the space could not be assigned to the system partition as requiring a contiguous space.

    So I used (free for home) Easus Disk Manager to create space * before * the partition main c and then expanded the system inside partition, making this system partition that is large enough. Everything worked well then!

  • WS-Security and proxy service: failed to add the identity security token

    You are the WS-Policy liaison to the entire operation or only for the query part of the operation. If you link the WS-Policy for the operation, the policy applies as well to the request and response. If the response message also contains the WSSE headers with a name of user and password invalid.

    You can only add members with the name or alias from another dimension, even if the names of the members in double is enabled. I do not recommend this. This problem often arises because you have the same name in several dimensions. Like other having to product and customer and division. We generally get around it by prefixing or suffixing the names in a dimension with something like prod others, cust-other, div-others.

    No cambia nulla, 1 MB 8 MB o prestazionalmente da great stessa prestazioni. Quello che cambia e dimensione massima del disk virtual che you can create by machine virtual una:

    blocksize 1 mb - virtual disk 256 GB

    blocksize 2 MB - virtual disk 512 GB

    blocksize 4Mo - virtual disk 1 TB

    blocksize 8 MB - virtual disk 2 TB

    Quindi, nell'eventualita che you debba avere di fare grew up brain, tanto vale partire subito need 8 MB, poi perche con a caldo no if Può cambiare it block size is distruggendo not it datastore.

    I have ESXi 4.0.0 installed on a 1 TB drive. The system also has a 3ware 9690SA in a RAID5 configuration with 4x750GB drives.

    It tooks some time but I was able to install the drivers via vSphere Client doing KB, then I rebooted.

    Back in vSphere Client I select the server, select Configuration - & gt; Storage, then "Add storage..." »

    I go through the steps, it displays 2.0 TB of capacity, but when I get to "Current disc layout" it only 47GB available!

    What gives any suggestions/ideas? Why can't I get the full 2 TB?

    I guess that there is actually 2 TB + 47 GB. You must create 2 TB-512 b LUN, not even one more byte.

  • Add LUNS pre-formatted

    I have a server iscsi with some database LUN and VM files on them.  When I had to rebuild my ESX servers, I am now unable to add these old LUNs to the system.  ISCSI HBA sees the ok, bu lun Eelle does not show storage under available devices, and it gives me only the possibility to the foramt, them who, obviously, I don't want to do what they are already in VMFS format and contain configured VMs.  How can I re-add-the to my host ESX without having to reformat?

    Thank you

    You will probably will those LUNs. I haven't done on ESX4 yet, but it should be an advanced named EnableResignature parameter you have to value 1 then Reanalyze the LUNS (and set the parameter to 0). It worked in the past when you have, for example, moved hard disks with VMFS volumes between the hosts.

    See the following article for a detailed explanation of the process:

    It should work like this with ESX4 as well, but I have not tested myself yet.
