Operating Systems AIX mkvg on iscsi disk won't work (6.1) Post 302422430 by mr.aart on Tuesday 18th of May 2010 11:11:03 AM

AIX 6.1's iSCSI-initiator works with IETd target [SOLVED]

At the risk of looking spammy, here my final remark on this subject:
I've successfully ran 'mkvg' on an iSCSI disk, exported from an RHEL5
machine running IET (http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/).

Code:
# chdev -l hdisk2 -a pv=clear 
 hdisk2 changed 
 # lspv 
 hdisk0          00c9a1fbe1fd35d0                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk1          00c9a1fbe5bf8aaf                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk2          none                                None 
 hdisk3          00c9a1fb6f64e590                    None 
 hdisk4          00c9a1fb6f652404                    None 
 # chdev -l hdisk2 -a pv=yes 
 hdisk2 changed 
 # lspv 
 hdisk0          00c9a1fbe1fd35d0                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk1          00c9a1fbe5bf8aaf                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk2          00c9a1fbad59e652                    None 
 hdisk3          00c9a1fb6f64e590                    None 
 hdisk4          00c9a1fb6f652404                    None 
 # mkvg -y foovg hdisk2 
 foovg 
 # lspv 
 hdisk0          00c9a1fbe1fd35d0                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk1          00c9a1fbe5bf8aaf                    rootvg 
 active 
 hdisk2          00c9a1fbad59e652                    foovg 
 active 
 hdisk3          00c9a1fb6f64e590                    None 
 hdisk4          00c9a1fb6f652404                    None 
 



Thanks to everyone that helped me fix this really _really_ annoying
issue!



--edit--
Useful to add that (or at least so I think) is that the odious 'devices.iscsi.array' warning by cfgmgr no longer appears since using IET.

The failure is caused by AIX's use of the SCSI "WRITE AND VERIFY"(0x2e) command which some iSCSI targets do not support. We experienced the same problem using... (1 Reply)
