I need some clarifications regarding primary and secondary storage devices.
>From following document, >http://cloudstack-installation.readthedocs.org/en/latest/hypervisor/xenserver.html In section "Separate Storage Network for XenServer (Optional)”, it states, I quote: For the separate storage network to work correctly, it must be the only interface that can ping the primary storage device’s IP address. For example, if eth0 is the management network NIC, ping -I eth0 <primary storage device IP> must fail. In all deployments, secondary storage devices must be pingable from the management network NIC or bond. If a secondary storage device has been placed on the storage network, it must also be pingable via the storage network NIC or bond on the hosts as well. In my case, since both primary and secondary storage are from the same NetApp filer, just two different volumes, so those two sentences highlighted red above can’t possibly be true at the same time ! As it is now, I can ping my filer from storage bond, as well as from management bond on xen hypervisor. Does this mean my primary and secondary storage volumes can not be served by the same filer ? Thanks for your help in advance. Yiping
