VMWARE LUN REPLICATION

[fcail]

Hi,
I tried to use a replicated datastore on a new ESX, but after rescan, I can’t re label the LUN without having a Format.

My steps :
1 – Replicate LUN – ESX A
2 – Stop Replication
3 - Enable LVM Resignaturing on ESX B
4 – Rescan
5 - Re label LUN replicated
………LVM ask me for Format ???

Thanks for your help.

How are you trying to relabel?

This will rename a store called "storage1" to "esxservername-localVMFS" :

ln -sf `readlink -f /vmfs/volumes/storage1` /vmfs/volumes/$HOSTNAME-localVMFS

Thanks,

I found the answer, i have to desactivate SAN HUR, to pass my LUN to the state SIMPLEX that allow me to copy.

Bye.
