Hi,
Instead of creating an SR with ‘type=iscsi’,
use ‘type=lvmoiscsi’ instead. This will create an LVM volume group
on the iSCSI LUN where guest disks (VDIs) will be LVs.
The ‘iscsi’ SR type
is intended for ‘LUN per VDI’ e.g. in a situation where you have
data already on a LUN and you want to attach it directly to a guest. Normally
XCP uses LVM to share one LUN amongst many guests.
Consider also setting your Pool default
SR to point to the new shared storage:
# xe pool-param-set
uuid=<uuid> default-SR=<sr-uuid> suspend-image-SR=<sr-uuid>
Cheers,
Dave

Subject: [Xen-users] XCP - GFS - ISCSI
Hi everyone!
I have 2 hosts + 1 ISCSI device.
I want to create a shared storage repository and both hosts
use together. I wont use NFS.
prepared sr:
xe sr-create host-uuid=xxx content-type=user name-label=NAS1
shared=true type=iscsi device-config:target=xxxx
device-config:targetIQN=xxxx
hosts see the iscsi device:
scsi4 : iSCSI Initiator over TCP/IP
scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access
NAS iSCSI-VDISK
0 PQ: 0 ANSI: 4
sdb: unknown partition table
next step:
Should i make a GFS filesystem? (XCP doesn't include the GFS
and clustering services)
Best Regards,
Menox
