Inaccessible Lun

I am working on decommissioning an old cluster (2nodes) that is part of a clustered system. So before deleting all the Lifs of these 2 nodes, I disabled them first to see if there will be an impact.  I noticed that 2 Luns are inaccessible (in vSphere client). So I enabled back the Lifs that give access to these 2 Luns and they are still inaccessible .  Can someone help me in this one?.

 

Thanks,

 

Gandhi

Is this iSCSI ? Are you able to ping to iSCSI Storage Target IP (LIFs that you disabled/enabled) ?

 

What is the output of this command:
::> igroup show -vserver <svm> -igroup <igroup_vmware>

Thanks for these leads.  It's FC storage. I re-enabled the Lifs of the SVM to whom belongs the Lun did not work. So I re-enabled all the Lifs of the 2 nodes I disabled before and the storage is accessible again. I have to investigate that. Thanks again.
