ISCSI Volume cannot open on both hosts simultaneously!?

$

Hi all,

 

 

I have ESX 3.0.1 installed on 2 hosts, which are both open in the VIC.

 

 

I have created the ISCSI adaptor in the network section, I have enabled ISCSI and entered the target IP address on both hosts.

 

 

firewall is also enabled for the ISCSI client.

 

 

on the ISCSI SAN there is a volume for access of only the 2 hosts which is 400gb in size.

 

 

If on host 1 i scan for disks it find the 400gb volume and it is added as storage, great all works fine!

 

 

NOW if i go to node 2 and scan for disks it finds the 400gb volume and adds it to storage.

 

 

NOW if i go back to node 1 and try to install a VM on this storage it says cannot find storage ISCSI.

 

 

If I go back to host 2 and then try to install on the ISCSI storage it will work fine but it says that it is for single access not multi access.

 

 

This if i go back to host 1 rescan i can add a VM to host 1 but then the ISCSI storage is then unavailible on host 2 again.

 

 

Please can any one advise what the problem is or how I can go about fixing this issue?

 

 

Thanks a lot

 

 

Mike
