Re: SolidFire CloudStack 4.11.3 and VMWare 6.5

Hi Christian,

there is an old page here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Storage+Configuration+Guide

It seems that you would create iSCSI HBA  and add datastore via vCenter,
later you add Primary Storage to ASC, by choosing "vmfs" as the protocol.

Check the thing that Mike mentioned, and double-check if you did not skip
some host for iSCSI HBA configuration.

SolidFire CloudStack 4.11.3 and VMWare 6.5

[Tutkowski, Mike]

Can you take a look in the cloud.host table and see if the IQN of each of the 
relevant hosts is populated in the url cell?

If it is not, you might have to run the force reconnect command on each 
applicable host (this is a CloudStack command).

Hi,
we are currently doing a PoC with SolidFire and CloudStack and trying to figure 
out if it’s a fitting solution for our use cases.

But I am stuck at the point when CloudStack tries to create a VM on the solid 
fire storage.
I can see that it has already copied the template to a SolidFire Volume but 
then the error message "Not all hosts in the compute cluster support iSCSI.” 
appears in the logs.

On the ESXi I have created a iSCSI HBA and attached it to a VMKernel adapter, 
is there anything else to do?
Is there any documentation for the setup? I have only found the youtube videos 
by Mike, but they does not focus on the vsphere setup part.


Regards Christian
