redundant link with loop protection

I'm trying to setup a redundant link between switches in our san environment, but keep ending up in a broadcast storm when I attach the trunk. I've attached a diagram of our environment, showing what I'm trying to achieve. I've attempted to implement an MSTP config that would allow our SAN vlans to communicate through this redundant link, while blocking our Production vlan from creating the loop.

Here is the config on both switches:
