Hi, I have problems setting up san volumes in a xen guest.
We are running the xen on opensolaris SunOS node2 5.11 snv_127 i86pc i386 i86xpv. The Xen guest itself is Solaris 10: SunOS pgbackup 5.10 Generic_141445-09 i86pc i386 i86pc In the past we were running an older solaris version with solaris zones on: SunOS node138 5.10 Generic_139556-08 i86pc i386 i86pc here new san volumes we automaticly detected and I simply used zpool to create the zpools. Now with opensolaris+xen and solaris sol10u8x86 in the xen guest I am experiencing the following behaviors/problems: 1. i am not able to create zpools on a fresh create volume. i have to run devfsadm first. this is not too bad and deterministic. 2. i am not able to create a zpool in the xen guest. before i treid this i run 'devfsadm -c disk' 3. when i create a zpool on another machine with an older solaris 10 release, i am sometimes able to import that pool. but this is not always the case. global: r...@node2:~ > echo 60:0A:0B:80:00:29:D6:9A:00:00:14:BF:4B:20:42:C3|tr -d : 600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3 global: r...@node2:~ > devfsadm -c disk -v global: r...@node2:~ > file /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0 /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0: cannot open: No such file or directory global: r...@node2:~ > zpool create pgbackup1b c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0 global: r...@node2:~ > file /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0 /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0: block special (85/3975) global: r...@node2:~ > zpool destroy pgbackup1b global: r...@node2:~ > virsh attach-disk pgbackup /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0 hdb Disk attached successfully global: r...@node2:~ > virsh start pgbackup Domain pgbackup started global: r...@node2:~ > ssh pgbackup Password: Last login: Thu Dec 10 09:26:56 2009 from 192.168.10.2 global: r...@pgbackup:~ > file /dev/dsk/c0d1d0 /dev/dsk/c0d1d0: cannot open: No such file or directory global: r...@pgbackup:~ > devfsadm -c disk -v global: r...@pgbackup:~ > file /dev/dsk/c0d1d0 /dev/dsk/c0d1d0: cannot open: No such file or directory global: r...@pgbackup:~ > zpool create pgbackup1b c0d1d0 cannot open 'c0d1d0': no such device in /dev/dsk must be a full path or shorthand device name zsh: 1096 exit 1 zpool create pgbackup1b c0d1d0 global: r...@pgbackup:~ (1)> best regards, Uwe
