qla2xxx - SNS scan failed


We have two hypervisor(Dell PowerEdge R630, virtualization environment: Proxmox), they are connected with an FC-switch and the FC-switch with the storage(dell compellent). One of the hypervisor are connected via multipath to the storage and it's works. The other hypervisor doesn't found the storage.

The not-finder-hypervisor says:

The multipath module is loaded into kernel. Both hypervisor have the same loaded modules.

Solution

  • Check SAN-zoning and LUN-secuty on the array: they must define and allow host-connection with the array and LUNs on it.
