iSCSI LUN on a Synology changed - how to reconnect?

Hello

We have a Synology RackStation where we organize two LUN iSCSI on it. These LUNS is mounted like data warehouses, store multiple virtual machines on it.

In the details of the data store, I see a path like: / vmfs/volumes/5283b99a-65... for each LUN.

Now, I need to replace the Synology unit. I can move all hard disks 1 to another Synology with problem, the unit will start and I can reach it under the same IP address. The LUNS are also on the rise. But, probably because the MAC address of the Synology has changed, I can't access the data warehouse etplus. In vSphere I marked as "dead". When I swap to Synology device, everything is back to normal.

How can I make the change to a Synology to another? Is there a way to specify a new path to the Lun, and then reconnect them just with its content of 'old '?

Thanks in advance,

Björn

Hello

On the new Synology you are presenting to VMware volumes? If nothing has changed (discovered access/intellectual property rights) that you will need to resign data warehouses:

Take a look at these two articles. They explain how a data store is trained and poetentially why you cannot connect to them when you change units.

  • Routers changed; How to reconnect time capsule

    Changed to Earthlink DSL to AT & T u-verse fiber and time capsule airport is no longer back up; AT & T set new router; I want to use only the Time Machine backup. What I have to do a hard reset of time capsule? Is there an easier way to reconnect with my iMac? I have now connected time capsule directly in my iMac, but still no recognition. Thank you.

    Whenever you change the modem or modem/router, or change service provider, the time Capsule airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work on the "new" network

    A hard reset on the Time Capsule will achieve this goal. Then, make sure that the Ethernet cable connects from one of the four <>- on the Uverse router/modem LAN ports to the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port.

    Set up the time Capsule still... you can use the same name and password if you want, or set up a new name and password if you wish.

  • How to use a larger than 2 TB iSCSI LUN?

    I have a server ESXi (4.1 U1) connected to an iSCSI NAS network, where 4 LUNS have been defined and presented to this host. all LUNS are 3 TB in size. ESXi correctly sees the LUNS and recognizes their size 3 to.

    I know that the maximum size for a VMFS data store is 2 TB, so creating a single data store for each logic unit number would be a waste of space. I know also that the creation of multiple data on a single LUN warehouses is not recommended, and it does not seem work either: If there is already a data store on a LUN, the just vSphere Client won't let me create something else here, it is not even list it in the list of available devices for the creation of data warehouses.

    I know that I can use extensions to create a store of data from more than 2 TB, but it seems to work across multiple LUNS: when I try to increase the size of a data store using the same logic unit number where he resides, ESXi is trying to increase it in fact, it won't go above 2 TB in size.

    My question is: is it possible to combine two extensions in the same logical unit number, so actually creating a composed of 2 extensions 1.5 TB 3 TB data store?

    If this is not possible, is it possible to create two data warehouses in the same iSCSI LUN? I know that this is not recommended, but it should at least be possilbe... but looks like it's not.

  • How to clean and do a fresh install with attached iscsi LUN?

    I intend to migrate both esx 4.1 with esxi5.1 hosts before you wipe and do a clean install.  Each host is connected to two iscis without, with 4 LUNS of each SAN attached to each host.  Each lun
    spread over 3 degrees is. I plan on vmotion (not storage vmotion) guests from one host to another to make the upgrade.  I'm stuck on the determination of what will happen to the iSCSI LUNS after I
    upgrade to esxi5.1 guests.  It seems that I should just be able to reattach, but I'm not sure.  Can I just attach the LUNS to the new installation 5.1 hosts and see all the
    VMDK intact, or is there something that I am on?

    And should the migrated to another host virtual machine continues to run on the iscsi san, while I upgrade of the host, they were released since then?  It seems that storage must be removed from the process as the LUNS
    should not remain attached to the host after it is cleared and the iqn name no longer exists.


    Am that I on the right track here?  What Miss me?

    jackjack2, understand you this? I went ahead and moved to esxi 5.0 U2 of ESX 3.5 u5. Had to perform clean install and I have an iSCSI SAN. That's what I did:

    1 a taken a screenshot from all my ESX host configurations. Go to configuration-> software adapter-> click on the iSCSI--> properties--> iqn copy map and alias-> click the dynamic discovery tab and note any IP address. You may need these IPs with the discovery of data warehouses later.

    2. after having documented the configs, put the host in maintenance mode.

    3. after maintenance, remove the host from the vcenter server. Connect directly to the host and close.

    4. remove all the network cables. Cable marking help before you detach the cables.

    5. clean install esxi 5.0.

    6. after installation, before rebooting, set the network cables.

    7. configure and test the management network. If your network management test fails, see if you have anything that is entered in the id vlan. Chances are that your port is not shared resources in the physical switch. In this case, remove the id vlan (during the configuration management network) work.

    8 bring the vcenter server host.

    9 configure the network, dns, time, etc.

    10 Add a software iSCSI adapter. This card will have a new iqn. Either you provide this iqn to your SAN administrator so that it can update side SAN, or you can use the old iqn name.

    11. in my case, I made a copy of the new iqn and then deleted. Entered the old iqn name obtained in step 1. Additionally, entered the alias (since one was present before). After that, a new analysis and update still does not fill in data warehouses. So, I went to the properties of the iSCSI adapter and then discovered added tab dynamic addresses IP that did not exist before (otherwise, you will need to enter the virtual IP address of the cluster that you data store (s) belong to). Once the IP addresses have been added to the dynamic discovery tab, he asked if I wanted to rescan the HBAs. I said yes and viola! my data stores have been populated.

    12 Add the host to the cluster.

    Note that you can add iSCSI adapter when you affiliate you the host to the cluster. However, in this case HA will not be happy because no heartbeat of data storages will be detected. In addition, when data warehouses are discovered it may appear initially as not mounted. Don't panic. After a minute or two it will be mounted.

    I hope this helps!

  • Attach an iSCSI lun to 5.1 and 5.5 to move virtual machines

    I have 1 Server esxi 5.1 I've built a bunch of VM now connected to a 4 TB iSCSI LUN.

    I gave recently 2 new 5.5 servers.

    Ideally, I would like to connect these 2 servers to the same lun iSCSI is used by the Server 5.1. Then, stop/forget each VM on 5.1, browse the data store on 5.5, add to the inventory and it start up. After all the machines are moved, I can do some changes on the material on the Server 5.1, it blow and install 5.5.

    I plead for the trouble, or is a reasonable way to do?

  • ESX 3.5 and iSCSI LUNS

    Good so I'm setting up my servers ESX using iSCSI LUNS.  I do not have the LUN in a VM, I want the servers to use.  Is it possible to do?  And how can I do for that implemented?

    Scott

    You must enable initiator initiator or software hardware

    If you go to the inititiator of the software, you must enable on each ESX host, by going to the configuration of the VI Client storage adapter tab. (you will see something like vmhba32, activate it)

    Once it is enabled, you must add your target (as we are talking about software initiator, it supports only dinamic discovery).  Recommendation, isolate the network cards that will connect to the iSCSI network.

  • How can I change how long file names & file can be?

    How can I change how long my file names & file can be?

    The path length limit cited in the article referenced by Abdul R is 260.

    It depends on the length of the full path to the file (for example, C:\Program Files\filename.txt). Windows limits a single path to 260 characters. That's why you can sometimes get an error when copying a file with a very long file name to a location that has a longer path than the location of the original file.

    -------------------------------------

    However, there are various subtleties that reduce that number in practice to 255 (or less), including all spaces.

    We start with the absolute limit imposed by Windows. The API operating system puts a limit (called MAX_PATH) 260 characters for the display name with the included path. This number is often cited. However, the current limits are smaller due to various other restrictions. For example, all names have to have a terminator at the end normally null only the computer see this fine marker, but it is considered as a character if there are really only 259 characters available. (Forget to count the null terminator is a common mistake). A three other characters are used by the designation of the drive or volume (for example, C:\). Thus, the limit to name all the folders and subfolders as well as the file is reduced to 256 characters. However, no files or a folder may have a name more than 255 characters. This includes spaces and some backslashes used as separators. This limit of 255 characters per object is imposed by the way Windows to encode the characters but other considerations usually impose lower limits.

    =====================

    And now, the grand fanale, the answer to your question:

    You cannot change the limit of the length of the path. It is imposed by various requirements and is coded in the system hard. You can set the 'balance' between the files and folder/sub-folder names. For example, use short directory names in order to use more long filenames.

    ======================

    All this can be a nuisance to the user. A file name may be OK when originally created but be too long if the file should be copied or moved to another location whose path is longer.

    There may be additional complications if the files are to be burned to CD or DVD.

  • Has anything recently changed how the check of the Image on the forms?

    Has anything recently changed how the check of the Image on the forms?


    Problem

    In these few days we noticed the verification of the Image on our forms does not preclude the submission form when the values do not match.

    Form design

    To create our forms, we use the procedure described here: http://www.thrise.com/blog/create-business-catalyst-WebForms.htm . Basically, we create the form with all the fields we want to, including the verification of Image ({module_captchav2}) outside the BC. We then put the code form on a page in British Colombia and tap the Actions button then choose optimize the content.  This creates a Web form (Site Manager > Web Forms).

    The form will not work correctly: we could submit the form and get an email and Image verification would prevent the submission form if the values don't match.

    Test
    We have confirmed on two other sites, forms correctly thwarting form submission when the captcha does not match are now allowing these forms to submit (emails are always received).

    When we create a form in British Colombia, verification of the Image fact work. So we guess something changed with what happens when the button optimize content or how the check of the Image. 


    Although some not, we believe that we used to display the field of captcha with the other fields of the form when you look at the form in British Colombia (Site Manager > Web Forms), but we don't see it now.

    img3.png

    Notes

    JQuery validation check required fields, including the field of Captcha, are not empty.

    We create forms using the procedure described above, because we want to use controls of sensitive form of the Bootstrap instead layout table tags generated during the construction of the form in British Colombia.  Be able to generate startup code, while the form of construction in British Colombia would be ideal.

    We believe that if we were to display the captcha field with the other fields in the form when you look at the form in British Colombia (Site Manager > Web Forms) that the Image verification will not work correctly.

    Verification of image above refers to the choices under the Site Management > forms > misc. However, when you look at the page in the browser it actually says 'Enter verification word in the box below.

    Here is an example of an already optimized form on my site in sandbox (feel free to submit the form): http://robertstastyvittles.mybizzuka.com/contact-us

    Thank you

    sepyh

    This guide, that I personally would not follow because it neglects several key elements you need for BC forms work properly, I'm surprised that has no mention of the use case or notes of those somehow.

    -Because you have carved in the script BC for the captcha form part you will not get a correct script error on submit for the captcha. This is the first problem there.

    D ' other hand you him have not set to force validation captcha on the form in the admin. Under Site Settings > Captcha is where that option life.

    Nothing has changed in British Colombia for the captcha feature, your missing just parameters and code to make it work as expected.
