VNXe 3150 VSI plugin issue that EMC support cannot resolve

I have installed the unisphere CLI and the vsphere plugin to enable ASA so I can take advantage of snapshots etc.. from within vcenter.

have the bits installed correctly but I still have a problem that EMC support cannot resolve. I have added my VNXe 3150 in the plugin interface on my vsphere client. I am trying to complete the ASA configuration to enable snapshots from within vcenter.

Within Unisphere I have enabled ASA for all ESX nodes and I have set the password for the "asa" user.

I then go to add the password on the vcenter side by clicking EDIT on the VNXe I added, and entering the password as well as hitting the checkbox to enable ASA.

The password will not be accepted. I see the task queue up and then I get an error saying "the operation is not allowed in the current state". I also see a message saying "the remote server returned an error 500 Internal server error"

EMC says the issue is because the VNX NFS interface needs to be able to communicate with the ESX vmkernal interface.

VMware says that is not a problem and works by nature that way since you can ony specify a singel defaut gateway for the NFS storage network interface and the VMkernal interface. Furthermore they say not only EMC but other storage vendors only need to be able to communicate from their management interface to the vmkernal interface in order to take advantage of the enhance storage API's for vsphere 5.1.

The VNX management interface can ping the vmkernal interface without a problem so vmware says this is an EMC issue. The EMC guy I am working with does not know much about VSI plugin and vcenter integration. I asked to escalate but it does not seem to happen I’m in limbo now. No one at EMC seems to be able to do this in a lab or see how it is supposed to work in order to help.

I sure hope someone has done this and knows what the issue is. There is little info on the web and I already read the plugin install instructions and I am installing correctly but it still does not work.

VNXe Interfaces:

NFS = 10.0.1.10 Management = 172.16.2.100

ESX Interfaces:

NFS (vmk1) = 10.0.1.50 & 10.0.1.55

Vmkernal management (vmk0) = 172.16.2.50 & 172.16.2.55

Thanks in advance

Hi Keytoolz,

As Zack mentioned above, after we reviewed your VSI logs, the error occured when you tried to add VNXe with ASA enabled was not caused by VSI, it seems that there are something wrong with your DHSM server, so we need your VNXe related log for further investigation, can you try to reproduce this issue and gather the log, then upload the VNXe log here?

There are two ways to gather the data collects from the VNXe:

Method1. Using Unisphere:
1.     Go to Settings > Service System.

2.     Enter the service password when prompted.

3.     Once it is done loading, there is an option in the middle pane that says "Collect Service Information".  Select this option and choose "Execute service action".

4.     A dialog box will display asking if you want to gather new logs or existing logs.  Choose "No" to gather new logs.

5.     After the logs are gathered you will be prompted to download the logs to your computer.  Select "Yes" and choose where to save the logs.

Method2. Using Secure Shell (SSH) or console:
1.     Log in as service.

2.     Run the command svc_dc.

3.     Open the SFTP client and SFTP into the Management IP address as service.

4.     Go to /EMC/backend/service/data_collection, locate the most recent file and download.

To gather dumps you will need to do the following:

1.     Establish a SSH to the VNXe and login as service.

2.     Take note of which Storage Processor (SP) you are on, the one you are automatically connected is the primary SP.

3.     If you need dumps from the primary SP then move onto step 4.  If you need logs on the peer SP or both SPs do the following:

        a.  To get to the peer, type in ssh peer then move on to step 4.
        b.  Once you are done with the other steps, you will need to move the files from the peer to the primary SP.
        c.  To move the files from peer to primary, type in scp filename.tar peer:/home/service.

4.     Run command cd /EMC/backend/service/data_collection/cores.

5.     Find all directories (not files) that are newest.

       a.  The files will look similar to spa_APM123456789_09-25-2012_14-31-23_logs_dump.tgz

       b.  Directory names will end in _dir.

6.     Run the command tar -cvf /home/service/choose_a_filename.tar directory_name. The .tar file will be in the /home/service directory.

7.     Open an SFTP client and SFTP into the Management IP address as service.

8.     Go to the /home/service directory, download the new .tar file created

Hi Keytoolz,

Can you show us the log files for VSI? We need the log file to do further investigation, thank you.

The VSI log file path: AppData\Roaming\EMC\Virtual Storage Integrator\vSphere4\Logs\EMC.VSI.VSphere4.Features.USD.UnifiedStorageManagement.txt

BTW, please set the log level to "Debug" before you reproducing the issue.

How to set the log level:

1. Launch vSphere Client, navigate to Home->Solutions and Applications->EMC

2. Click on "Logging"

3. Choose "Debug" in the dropdown list of  "Log Levels" on the right panel.

Thanks very much.  really appreciat your help.

The support guy I am working with never even looked at the logs.  I just looked at that log file and I see interesting info already.  Most intersting is this:

2013-02-01 13:26:05,300 [3940] [39] DEBUG EMC.Solutions.Utilities.VNXe.UnisphereCLI - Unisphere CLI is not installed
2013-02-01 13:26:06,096 [3940] [39] ERROR EMC.Solutions.Utilities.Registry.RegistryHandler - Could not find Registry key LocalMachine\SOFTWARE\EMC\UEMCLI  .

.

The interesting thing is that I do have the EMC CLI installed.  I am running a 64 bit Windows OS and there was only a 32 bit Unisphere CLI available so I installed that.  I installed it on the D:\ drive.

I looked at my registry and it has a slightly differnet key name of: HKLM\SOFTWARE\EMC\YMECLI.   I dont see an option to upload the log file.  Do you want me to paste the entire log?

Thanks again, Ill be standing by.

No I have not tried uninstalling then reinstalling.  Do you suggest I try that?  I also did confirm that the EMC_Credentials.XML file does exist in the dircetory that is speciifed in the log.  I dont know why it is not being seen.   It seems this all may be related to the Reg key that does not exist.

looking for this key: LocalMachine\SOFTWARE\EMC\UEMCLI

But this is the only key similiar to that:  LocalMachine\SOFTWARE\EMC\YMECLI

Im almost tempted to try renaming YMECLI to UEMCLI.

Have you tried un-installing and re-installing Unisphere CLI?

Hi,

Are the EMC Reports from this VSI host attached to the Service request?

For Windows hosts : ftp://ftp.emc.com/pub/emcgrab/Windows/ (download the appropriate version)

Please make sure you download and run the correct OS bit version of EMCReports.

If you are using Windows 2008 – you should right click the downloaded file and Run as Administrator for the EMCReports to function.

Thanks & Regards,

Arjun

I have not installed any reporting bits.  Are you saying I should install this reporting piece and run some kind of report then upload the report to this discussion?

I'd still right click the installer and select "Run as administrator" when re-installing.

Yes, I'd give that a try as one of the log messages is " DEBUG EMC.Solutions.Utilities.VNXe.UnisphereCLI - Unisphere CLI is not installed"  Make sure you run the installer as admin to ensure all registry settings and other modifications are performed correctly.

Okay,  I just tried the following:

uninstalled Unisphere CLI from the vcenter server.

I right clicked on the executable and RAN AS ADMIN for the reinstallation.

I rebooted the vcenter server.

I went back into unisphere on the VNXe 3150 and reset the asa password just in case.

I then went into vcenter VSI plug-in and try to enable asa and set the password to match the one I just entered in unisphere directly but I get the exact same error.

Also the new installation did not create that registry entry that is being looked for according to the log.

Oh by the way, I even installed it on C:\ this time just in case since it was installed on D:\ previous but that did not help. Anymore ideas? I don’t understand why the reg entry is not being created (or why the plugin is trying to access the incorrect key). I am full local admin on the vcenter server, In fact the account is a domain admin as well.

Update:  I noticed that the log file info I posted was old data.  That log is not being updated.  I then set the logging level to debug as YULI suggested.  I am pasting the new log info here:

I am making progress. it looks like the reinstall may have helped. It may be because I installed on C instead of D this time but I am not sure.  That of course means there could be a bug in the code but I cant say for sure.

The log files don’t have the errors anymore and it does show that it loads the storage viewer module successfully.

From log:

Load - EMC.VSI.VSphere4.Features.SPO.StorageViewer - 5.4.0.67 - Succeede

I am now able to provision storage from vcenter. The strange thing is that within the plugin if I edit the VNXe to click on the enable asa checkbox as well as add the password, I get that same error I mentioned in the beginning of this discussion. Then If I go back into that setting, the “enable asa” checkbox  is always unchecked. - Yet it now works and is now available to provision as well as making clones and all those other fun things from within vcenter.

Does anyone know if that is how it should be?

Looks like there is an issue with the DHSM configuration, and I've seen some other posts about this issue as well (but no answers).
