I have created a new setup for VCS for doing some testing on virtual box. After creating 3 Solaris 10 machine (147148-26) with VCS. Here I have used one machine as ISCSI Storage.
VCS Version is
First VCS Node info is
For another Node
One OS disk and one LUN is showing in vxdisk command. Further both LUNs ids are different on both nodes which are showing in vxdisk output. I have ran "vxdisk enable" , "vxdisk scandisks" , devfsadm and even taken all the reconfiguration reboot multiple time even then I didn't get all the disk are shown in vxdisk list command. How can I make all the disk visible in vxdisk list command
1. Check cabling and disk jumpers for addressing conflicts.
2. Check disk labels are compatible with VCS
3. Check disk mode pages are not left in inconsistent state from previous use.
So (1) speaks for itself. (2) you could rewrite the disk labels to ensure they are compatible with VCS. They probably need to be Sun labels but check that out. (3) disks are highly programmable devices and the mode pages on them can lock a disk out from inquiry from any device other than the one it thinks it's locked to (as in a cluster failover). As you will know, only one node can read and write to any volume at one time otherwise corruption results. This can leave disks in a locked state so select the option "set all mode pages to default" to clear all settings.
So I would look at 1,2,& 3 first. Remember to do both 2 and/or 3 you need to run format in expert mode. By default, Solaris format doesn't offer such menu options. Add the -e switch:
to run format in expert mode. You're telling Solaris that you're an expert so you'd better be one.
I think first point we can ignore (Check cabling and disk jumpers for addressing conflicts.) as I am doing in virtual box.
Further I have label all the disk to SMI label and also enable "set all mode pages to default" and also took the reconfiguration reboot and still the issue is same
On Node1
On Node2

Note : This time LUN id is same on both nodes when we run the
command and also this LUN id is different from previous two LUN ids in my previous output

Just now I have noticed that after taking reconfiguration reboot LUN id show in vxdisk command output are different
On Node one
On Node Two --- Post updated at 02:11 PM ---
again took a reboot the one dick is from previous on one node and one disk is new on another node
