I have a MDS 9148 that I have been trying to configure, so I blew away the configuration and ran setup again. It looked normal, I could access it from putty but when I try to use DCNM-SAN to configure it I get "Permission Denied" on everything, new zoneset, new zone, etc. What am I missing?

I open a case with VMware and they performed the following steps: Rebuild the VirtualCenter agent configuration file on the ESXi host: Caution: This step removes all host and virtual machine historical statistics counters. If the VMware ESX host is running virtual machines that started up in an EVC enabled environment, you may not be able to add the host back without shutting down the virtual machines first. a. Right-click the ESX host in vCenter Server and click Disconnect. b. Remove the disconnected ESX host from vCenter Server. 2. From ESXi host: a. Select Toubleshooting b. Select Restart Management Agents and press Enter 3. In vCenter a. Add the disconnected ESX host to the vCenter Server inventory.

I'm booting my Windows 2008 R2 from SAN and it works fine. The only way I have been able to have additional disk from the SAN is to include them in the Boot Policy with a second vHBA. That does not seem right. What is the proper way to present additional LUNs to a windos server? How are the LUN numbers managed?

It's working!!! Most everything you posted worked except for one thing. For some reason beteen UCS, Qlogic switches, and Hitachi 2100 SAN, I could not use LUN 0 for Boot. I had to use the LUN number that was defined in the Hitachi SAN. I have spent hours on the phone with Cisco, Hitachi and VMware and nothing they said helped. I fact Cisco is still saying that is not setup correctly. Thanks for all your help. I would have never gotten it to work.

I get it. So here is what I have: UCS Boot Order where 50:06:0E:80:10:4B:5B:89 is one of the Hitachi SAN interfaces From the QLogic switch the active Zone Set is Orica_denver where the Zone usydoz77 has all the Hitachi interfaces and the WWPN of the Storage vHBA When the blade is booted it display a blank black window. The cusor moves down several lines but does not display anything. Where do I go from here?

I am using a Boot Policy SAB Boot When boot the CRrom, Cisco ESXi, I can install to Hitachi LUN Details The install finshies. At this point I would expect to be able to look at the LUN via vCenter and see the install files. It is not there. The flogi shows Do I have the correct SAN target? 20:00:00:25:B5:01:0B:0B Or do I us the WWNN, 20:00:00:25:B5:01:0B:0A, from the storage tab.

I'm getting close to having it up. On the Qlogic switch I created a zone usydoz77, is it correct? 0b0b is the fc1 (I changed to fc1) WWN. The 73c0 is the cisco adapter from UCS When I boot to install Cisco ESXi with the Boot from SAN Boot order, I do not see the LUN as discribed on intial post. I have to change to a Local Disk policy then I see the Disk and the LUN. I choose the LUN to install to, let the install finish, shutdown the system, change to Boot from SAN, and it presents a blank screen. Additionly I do not see the flogi for my WWN. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have any details on how this worked? I setup 2 HBA fc0 and fc1. I set the Boot Order to boot from CD then SAN From the Switch we see the San Boot target The server boots, I select the CDrom (no SAN selection appears, but thats OK we have to get it on the SAN LUN first) ESXi boots from CDrom and no option to install to SAN. Where am I going wrong?

I mean the 6120-a management ports (both) AND 6120-b management ports. I was using 1 port from A and B and I was getting duplicate address assigned to the same Blade, thus the KVM failed when launch.

The problem turned out to be with the Management Ports on the Fabric Interconnect (6120). According to TAC, you have to have both ports connected. Very strange. Message was edited by: Harold Himes

I keep having a problem with KVM Console failing to connect because the same blade has 2 IPs. In the Admin/Management IP Pool (ext-mgmt) you can see the association of the 2 IPs. How can you get rid of the association? In Equipment/Server Maintenance, I decommissioned the server and that did not help. I Re-acknowledge the server and that did not help. Any ideas?
