Hi people,
I'm working with CX4-480 and ESXi 4.0 (VCenter, SRM...).
Some LUNs named "virtual disks" appeared without any command issued by the storage administrators. I think there is something related with SRM.
I coulnd find anything at logs... any "bind" command.
These LUNs are all the same size (61,786 GB) and they are not assigned for any host.
I read some papers from EMC but I was useless.
Do you know about this?
Thanks.
AranH,
I can't insert the image here, There is a message saying the content is not allowed. I will try to reproduce here for you....
**Navisphere Manager**
RAID Group 28 [RAID 5; FC]
+-----Virtual Disk 8197 [146; RAID 5; FC]
+-----Virtual Disk 8202 [152; RAID 5; FC]
+-----Virtual Disk 8203 [153; RAID 5; FC]
....
Thin LUNs do not appear in RAID Groups, they are listed under the Thin Pool there were created in under the Storage Pool container.
To upload an image make sure the file extension is a lower case .jpg. Some Windows programs make the extension upper case and I have seen that cause the image upload to fail.
ok well we can see someone or something used the account SRM_Vmware to bind something.
Any scripts being used that call that user? I dont know enough of SRM to know if it has that functionality. which site is this in SRM? the protected or recover site?
Those sure look user created.. do you have multiple array's in your environment? if so, maybe these should have been created on a different one and they had the array's mixed up?
I asked a person that is very familiar with SRM and they siad that SRM doesnt automatically create lun's on an array it is connected to
im curoius now....
I rescued some messages from logs.... Idon't konw if it is related bacause we are testing SRM.....

I would do as AranH suggest and change the password on that account. If they have to do something again, it will force them to contact you and then you will know when someone is messing around inside your array.
