Re: vSphere takes 10 minutes to reconnect to volume?
There isn't an obvious way to clear it on ESXi so I may install ESX tomorrow and look at that.
I'm not entirely convinced though as enough people are presumably using P4000 with ESXi.
I'll be interested to see what HP come back with when the remote in.

Re: vSphere takes 10 minutes to reconnect to volume?
Ah we both replied at the same time I think.
Regarding STP/MSTP, right now it's simple enabled globally on the switch, I've not done anything to restrict it to the inter-switch link ports.
I believe with full ESX you can clear the ARP cache which should make troubleshooting much easier (hell even a cron job to clear it every minute would be better than this!!).

Re: vSphere takes 10 minutes to reconnect to volume?
You can run "esxcli network neighbor list" from the CLI and see the arp table and the lifetime remaining in seconds.
As the lifetime counts down you can't ping the cluster IP, when the lifetime reaches zero ping starts working.
Bugger.

Re: vSphere takes 10 minutes to reconnect to volume?
It does not help you but here is what I found about ARP control on ESXi: http://serverfault.com/questions/197918/clearing-arp-cache-on-esxi-4-1. My feeling is that you will have to open a support request with VMware. It seems to me that whenever a team has it interfaces reset, it should flush the existing dynamic info and learn again. If you have any workaround on the issue, would appreciate that you post back to the forum.
My 2 cents.
Good luck.
Alain

Re: vSphere takes 10 minutes to reconnect to volume?
I'll see what L2 P4000 have to say first - enough people must be doing this that I don't see why I should be the only one to encounter this issue so it may be our configuration somehow (it's entirely HP kit so you'd think they would know it).
If not, I'll try ESX and check that emptying the arp cache manually works.
Appreciate the help/info/feedback :)
