Snapdrive issue when MSCS do failover. "Failed to enumerate virtual disks, error code 0x800703f0"

[#1]

Hi Gurus

IHAC met some strange error.    when they do MSCS failover testing, sometimes, for some resource group, the failover is failed.  they found in SnapDrive log, there are following error messages:

In Snapdrive log, it report "Failed to enumerate virtual disks, error code 0x800703f0".

Customer environment is windows 2003, SDW 5.0.1. there are about 16 Luns in this cluster.  sometimes, the failover failed, but sometimes failover worked well.  My questions are

1) why SDW report  "Failed to enumerate virtual disks, error code 0x800703f0"?

2) Is it necessary that SDW service must be up when do MSCS failover?

3) is it the root cause that 16 LUNs is too much for SDW?

4) Any workaround?

Of coz, I already ask them to raise a case.  if I get the case#, I will update here.

Any input is appreciated!

Thanks and Best Regards!

Hi Chao,

1) why SDW report  "Failed to enumerate virtual disks, error code 0x800703f0"?

May want to look at the host side logs to see if there are any other errors.  iScsi network errors could cause some problems.

2) Is it necessary that SDW service must be up when do MSCS failover?

SDW service needs to be up and running for snapdrive to work and not for MSCS failover.

3) is it the root cause that 16 LUNs is too much for SDW?

16 luns should be fine.

4) Any workaround?

Found a KB article that may help

Hi Watan

Thanks for your kindly reply.  I am just back from a long biz-trip.

Customer has already followed the KB34470 but it seems sometimes it worked very well and sometime could not work. custoemr environment is FCP.

some log msg are like:

Try setting the swsvc service to depend on the clussvc service so SnapDrive doesn't start before the cluster service.
