Oracle VM Repository show warning and become failure state when refresh it

Yoga H.KSep 30 2016

Hello Guys,

I need your help so much.

Specification :

- OVM Manager 3.3.4

- OVM Server 3.3.4

- LUN EMC 15 TB <-- This used to be repository

- OS OEL 6.5

yesterday suddenly there are a few users said that they can't access repo or vm. and then i checked it, and i found that my repository let called it with REPO1, was in warning state

i don't know whats wrong. and then i search the solution from google, and i found some article and then i followed it.

1. try to refresh the SAN Server.

2. try to refresh physical disk

3. try to refresh shared file system.

i check that 3 step, but when i refreshed the shared file system, the REPO1 showed me errors, such as a missing file system. and then i try to find a way,i try to rename the filesystem to be REPO1 using CLI, but the errors still the same.

and then i found the article in google and i followed the step :

1. delete physicaldiskk REPO1 --> it showed error such as this physical disk still have a filesystem in OVM

2. release ownership from REPO1 --> errors too, must refresh the physicaldisk

3. delete filesystem REPO1

4. refresh the SAN Server

5. refresh the PhysicalDisk

i followed that step, but the repository show nothing, there is no repository.. even i click Show ALL Repository, still empty, i restart the OVM Service, still nothing works.

my question is :

1. am i deleted the whole content file in my LUN?

2. if not, how to show me the repository?

3. how to mount the ex LUN REPO1, to my OVM Server, so i can copy the virtual disk to other Storage?

4. how to solve if there are warning status in my repository and it show that filesystem is missing?

Hope you can help me guys, i really need your help to save my life.

Thank you

YHK
