Re: MSA2040 + D2700 Enclosure - Server 2012R2 Hyper-V Cluster

This is OK for RAID 1 - I missed that, sorry.

However, if "N/A" in the CLI output is the "TYPE", (try to un-wrap the output while viewing to confirm), then this is a problem ...


Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Now it looks different. It was a copy'n'paste problem only in the earlier post?

So the array should be good. If you have the same problem with all the volumes, I would search on the server side now (I have no clue about Hyper-V, sorry).

Notice this from the firmware release notes:

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p208182240/v91314/rn_msa_2040_controller.html

Important firmware notes

HP recommends that you update the Windows cache by using the cmdlet, Update-StorageProviderCache -DiscoveryLevel Full -Name <storageProviderName> manually, after attempting any storage provision operations that use the MSA management interface.

HP recommends that you use the MSA management interface (Storage Management Utility or Command Line Interface) to modify volume mappings, delete volumes, or modify volume names. Manually update Windows cache by using the cmdlet, Update-StorageProviderCache -DiscoveryLevel Full -Name <storageProviderName>.


Hope this helps!
