Dell R610 boot from iSCSI

Hello!

I try to install XenServer 6.1 in to iSCSI LUN, I successfully configured Broadcom BCM5709C Network Adapter to boot from iSCSI, but when I start to install XenServer an error occurs, that installation can' t find disk:

When I try to install CentOS 6.3, same error.

I try to install Windows 2008 R2 and it can find drive and successfully install it.

So it looks like linux installations can' t find hard drive, how I can solve this problem?

iSCSI LUN is configured on NetApp storage.

Thanks!

It sounds like your linux and Xenserver do not have the correct drivers to detect the iSCSI LUN. You can try the Red Hat downloads on the Dell site, but you may need to call your OS support group to see if they have the right drivers for their specific OS (I mostly deal with VMware and most of the drivers you need in ESXi are available on the VMware website).
