Help setting up multipathing on CentOS 4.7 to an Equallogic iSCSI target
I'm trying to test out an Equallogic PS5500 with a server running CentOS 4.7 I can create a volume and mount it fine using the standard iscsi-initiator-utils tools. The Equallogic box has 3 Gigabit interfaces and I would like to try to set up things so I can read/write from/to the volume using multiple NICs on the server i.e. get...

Windows DomU on NAS
Hello, I''d like to be able to create a windows DomU which is to be stored on a NAS (Equallogic) device. I was wondering if anyone has any best practices on how to do this? Is there a way to extend the DomU C drive once you create the initial device, etc? Any suggestions would be great. I have already tried this by just using a phy:/dev/path-to-iscsi-mount- point and it appears to be wo...

ZFS with Equallogic storage
I''m planning on setting up an NFS server for our ESXi hosts and plan on using a virtualized Solaris or Nexenta host to serve ZFS over NFS. The storage I have available is provided by Equallogic boxes over 10Gbe iSCSI. I am trying to figure out the best way to provide both performance and resiliency given the Equallogic provides the redundancy. Since I am hoping to provide a 2TB datastore I am thinking of carving out either 3 1TB luns or 6 500GB luns that will be RDM''d to the st...

Moving zfs to an iscsci equallogic LUN
We have a Mirror setup in ZFS that''s 73GB (two internal disks on a sun fire v440). We currently are going to attach this system to an Equallogic Box, and will attach an ISCSCI LUN from the Equallogic box to the v440 of about 200gb. The Equallogic Box is configured as a Hardware Raid 50 (two hot spares for redundancy). My question is what''s the best approach to moving the ZFS data off the ZFS mirror to this LUN, or joining this...

ISCSI SAN suggestion
Sorry for the off-topic question but I need advice on a buying a ISCSI SAN for 4-6 servers running CentOS 4.4 .The main purpose for the SAN is to store email accounts (that will be accessed by imap - dovecot) and other documents. Minimal redundancy is required (e.g. dual power supplies, battery backed write cache or mirrored controllers) and price for a 2 TB configuration should be under $ 10000.

Pool, iSCSI and guest start
...it a try on my network ;-) I need to run a VM with iSCSI target attached. I did it this way : 1) Creation of iscsi pool (equa.xml) : <pool type="iscsi"> <name>equalog</name> <source> <host name="10.10.0.1"/> <device path="iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-4992c7f05-39c000000114b8fc-vglog"/> </source> <target> <path>/dev/disk/by-path</path> </target> </pool> This pool start smoothly (when open-iscsi started), no problems. An entry is created in /dev/disk/by-path/ related to iscsi target. 2) I fla...

sdc1 without the sdc
So I'm working with the iSCSI Initiator and an EqualLogic SAN. I'm not sure when this might have happened, but it appears that the /dev/sdc device is missing, yet the /dev/sdc1 partition exists AND is mountable. Is there a method to re-create the /dev/sdc device? I cannot dd or fdisk it, obviously, but I can mount the /dev/sdc1 partition and it wor...

Need SAN suggestion
Hello, It is not total off-topic since almost all connected servers will be RHEL and CentOS. :) We are considering to purchase new storage system. The most probably we will be choosing between HP (EVA6000), EMC (CX3-20C) and Hitachi (similar model). iSCSI connection is also required. What are your experienced with listed systems? What to avoid? What ot expect? Now I just know

strategy/technology to backup 20TB or more user's data
Hi Friends, I am currently using Samba on Centos 4.4 as a domain member of AD 2003 with each user having a quota of 2GB(no of users is around 2,000). Now the management wants to increase the quota to 10GB with this there will be more than 20TB of data to be backup weekly which will take lots of hours. Currently Veritas backup software is used to backup data on tapes. There is a concept of

CentOS and Dell MD3200i / MD3220i iSCSI w/ multipath
...ed omissions, terminology differences, and procedural differences among the "Owner's Manual", "Deployment Guide", a professional services "Remote Services Installation Agreement" service description. Some of the multipathing guidance we've had comes from their EqualLogic line of storage servers. Questions: 1: Is there anyone out there running this configuration and are you satisfied with it? 2: We get a set of error messages on the initator at target login. These appear to be benign, and web research suggests it's the result of a driver configuration issue...

Highly Performance and Availability
...to high availability, and I'm wondering exactly how to provide some kind of near-realtime failover for my Postfix/Dovecot machine. The MD-1000 provides nothing in the way of iSCSI, but it *does* have two SAS connections available, only one of which is in use. I have been looking at the Dell EqualLogic stuff and it seems to provide what we need. I can get most of the information I need from the rep, but I wonder if anyone has any experience with high performance requirements on these kinds of storage. I'd like to continue running my current hardware as the primary mail server, but provid...

An Open-iSCSI Question
...ate and mount multiple iSCSI partitions and have them mount at boot. Now I wanted to setup a situation where one of the visible iSCSI partitions mounts at boot and the other is only available if I manually connect to it. This led me to the following command *iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-237781f06-770000000134b676-inf2-san1 -p 192.168.1.100:3260 --op update -n node.startup -v manual *which stops the server from logging into the partition automatically. This is fine and provides me with the functionality I need, but if anyone run a discovery against the iSCSI storage...

Hardware performance question : Disk RPM speed & Xen Performance
Hello, I am a relatively new user of Xen virtualization, so you''ll have to forgive the simplistic nature of my question. I have a Dell R410 poweredge server (dual quad core CPUs + 32gb ram). I plan on utilizing this server with Xen. The ''dilemma'' I am having is whether or not to replace the 2x 500gb 7.2K RPM drives that came with the server with faster 300gb
