virtual HBAs only showing port address set A in fabric

this is for initiator that is currently not logged-in right ?

Grazi!!! Thanks again Dynamox!

Below is what I usually do. I am running Brocade switches and I do most of the things through command line and it has been some time since I worked on Cisco switches so I don't exactly remember the commands but you should get the idea. Also, I borrowed your WWNs (sorry about that).

Assumption is that SPA0 & SPB1 connect to one fabric and SPA1 & SPB0 connect to second fabric. You want to zone all vHBAs to all the SP ports in that fabric as it is not under your control which vHBA Hyper-V will bring online.

When you mention failover is failing, do you mean Live Migration?

Also, you will have to manually register all paths on VNX.

If servers still cannot see paths make sure to check all paths in storage group---host tab---advanced (when you go in engineering mode).

Let us know how it goes

EDIT: This entry has some incorrect information. Please ignore it.

OK, this is driving me nuts. I have done everything manually, it looks good. The windows folks keep pointing to my zones since failover is still not working.

Can someone tell me how the zones should look for windows hyper-v. My first group of zones is:

Individual zones(both A set, B set(failover) that are separate and look like this

VSAN 100 zones

virtual host ip

address set A HBA (2 in each VSAN)

virtual host ip

address set B HBA (2 each VSAN)

Per Microsoft: also include one zone per vsan with

All address set A/B in vsan

physical host HBAs for both host

VSAN 200 (same as 100)

Please tell me what should be in these zones for failover to work. I really appreciate it.

Hello,

Yes, you are correct. I meant Live Migration. Thank you for your help. I am going to delete the microsoft zones and check each zone I have configured to match your specifications.

Thank you so much! I will report back on what worked.

Still getting resources unavailable. I am perplexed. All initiators are zoned in each vsan.

I am sorry my previous entry had information which is not correct. That was an extract from my first draft that I had created and we had the same issue as you have now.

Basically you want all the vHBAs zoned to every SP port, with the reason being that Hyper-V dynamically creates vHBAs on physical HBAs at time of live migration and there is no guarantee that a specific vHBA (Port Set A or Port Set B) will be created on a specific physical HBA.

I am so sorry for the wrong information before, I had to check my documentation to understand my mistake

Please let us know how things go.
