ONTAP 9.6 FC issue with vmware HBA don't see NetApp

StephaneGilliers

Hello,

It's the first time I post on this community,

I have one problem with FC and would like just have some precisions with Vmware don't see lun.

The connexion to vmware don't working

igroup show
          Vserver Name: svm_fc
           Igroup Name: ESX01
              Protocol: fcp
               OS Type: vmware
Portset Binding Igroup: fc_pset_1
                  ALUA: true
            Initiators: 21:00:00:24 (not logged in)

And if I make a fcp ping initiator on ESX's WWPN I have

    Remote WWPN: 21:00:00:24:ff
       LIF Name: NODE-01_fc_lif_1
           Node: NODE-01
    Ping Status: zone-info-not-available

The topology show see the fabric

vserver fcp topology show -vserver svm_fc
svm_fc
        NODE-01_fc_lif_1
                       1      SWITCH_BROCADE300_1 10:00:00:05:33:  24

Do you know what exactly "zone-info-not-available" are ?

Do you know where I can found more logs ?

Firmware Version of switch are check in IMT.

Thank you very much,

Hello,

It's ok the LUN are mounting.

In fact drivers of Vmware's HBA need to be upgraded Smiley Mad IMT was checked just for fabric.

Thank you very much for your implication.

Are there other luns that you can see?

Do you have zoning in place between the initiators (host(s)) and the Targets (NetApp) ? It doesn't look like that host is logging in to the storage.

Hello,

Thank you for your quick reply.

No AFF are the first connected to existent Fabric with EMC FC Storage.

- Zoning (it's not me which manage brocade) at make by specify WWPN of LIF Netapp (Start by 20: and not 50:) and WWPN of Vmware.

- We check also NPIV on Brocade.

- We make a portset in SVM mapped to igroup

- We make an igroup in SVP mapped to LUN with WWPN of Vmware HBA

- We check also the LUN ID for not have an existing LUN ID in ESX

If I do a "network fcp topology show" I can see the switch with all ports and WWPN connected

And if I do "network fcp zone show" (I don't have a valid system for check what he must return) :

::> network fcp zone show
Warning: Unable to list entries for kernel on node "NODE-01": Fabric query operation timed out or was rejected.
         Unable to list entries for kernel on node "NODE-02": Fabric query operation timed out or was rejected.
Error: show failed: Fabric query operation timed out or was rejected

I have no more idea what I can do for check if this is a netapp problem.

Thank's,

SpindleNinja

if you run "fcp initiator show" does it show anything? if nothing, then the issue is most likely in the zoning.

Do you see the WWPNs flogi-ing on the switchs?

can you also post the output of the following?

net port show

net int show -vsever <fcp vserver name>

portset show

igroup show

lun mapping show

I try to give you all information (from my note) since i have no access to storage until tomorrow.

I hope you see someting !!
