Cannot format a disk on our HP EVA 4400 SAN from our new Dell PowerEdge M710 blade.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/d8058f2c-8c86-4c20-9291-36840b21dd0d
We did a fresh format and install of W2K8 64 bit Datacenter SP2 (Full) with Hyper V on the M710 with a Qlogic QME2572 HBA. I requested one 40 GB lun from our HP EVA 4400 SAN be presented and tried to quick format it. It failed with the pop-up error, "The format did not complete successfully." I let a normal format run for 4 hours and it only completed 10%, so I cancelled it. I canтАЩt find any entries of errors in the event logs that appear to be related. The same lun was then presented to a Dell Poweredge M600 blade in the same chassis with a Qlogic QME2472 HBA and I was able to format it from that machine in about a minute. Just for kicks I tried formatting a USB drive to NTFS on the M710 and that worked. I also tried swapping the HBA's between the M710 and M600 and I still wasn't able to format the lun from the M710. I tried updating the HBA driver on the M710 from 9.1.4.6 to 9.1.8.16 and the quick format still fails.

Re: Cannot format a disk on our HP EVA 4400 SAN from our new Dell PowerEdge M710 blade.
what Windows version was running on the M600?
I've seen this behaviour with Windows Enterprise Edition, too. This seems to be a little bug, because EE (and I guess DC as well) does not automatically assign a drive letter and mount a new volume in some cases.
