Replicate an iSCSI LUN mounted on a linux box
I have an VNXe 3100 iSCSI LUN mounted on e RHEL 5.8, on which i have a VG and several logical volumes.
I am trying to replicate this iSCSI LUN over to another VNXe using RM. On the production host I installed RMAgent 5.4.1 and SE 7.3.22, and setup the host on the RM Console. I also created the Application Set, but when I try to create a Job, i get "The application does not reside on supported storage. Unable to create a job for it".
Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the answer.
I patched RM (the server and clients) as soon as i got this error, following simliar posts, but the error is still there.

There should be a patch for this (RM 5.4.1) see other posts on the subject and open a Service Request to get the patch

I was not talking about update 5.4.1 but about a patch that needs to be applied to that update so that one can create new jobs

Claude,
I've been to the download area and only found "Replication Manager 5.4 Service Pack 1 (RM 5.4 SP1)"[1], which is the one I applied. Do you know of any other one ?

The patch is not on Powerlink and you need to open a Service Request to have it

You can access VNXe 'Live Chat' Technical Support 24x7 very easily, direct from Unisphere via the Support->Need More Help screen or through the following link:

According to EMC Support (and a support matrix), generic iSCSI storage replication on VNXe through RM (the only way to replicate iSCSI on VNXe) is not supported on Linux ... which I think is embarrassing ...
If anyone knows if there is a hidden hack to be done I'm all ears.
