OVS not seeing SAN disk (Netapp)

User470448-OCSep 6 2012 — edited Sep 13 2012
I have setup Oracle Virtual Mananger v3.1.1 on Oracle Linux with Oracle 11g standard. I have then created two OVS servers (HP DL380 G6) v3.0.3. I then discovered them ok on the OVM. I have created two SAN disks on our Netapp and presented them to both servers over fibre. I was able to see both disks from both servers, setup the server pool, add both servers in a cluster and then create a VM on one of them. So all ok so far.... Next I reboot one of the servers and it struggles to get back into the cluster. I can see that they are not picking up the SAN disks for ages after the reboot, in which case it cannot join the cluster. If I ssh onto the server and look in /dev/mapper the only file there is control. On the server that hasn't been rebooted for ages I can see both SAN disks. If I do service ovs-agent restart a number of times it then adds one of the SAN disks in but by then I cannot connect to the cluster. I have tried all sorts of things looking on forums. Can someone please help me please before I start from scratch and recable using NFS presented storage and try again. Has anyone else had this?
