Preface: Ive been working with ESOS for a few years, trying to create a redundant FC storage array using shared disks.
Ive just recently picked back up where I left off, and managed to get 4 Raid1 arrays built. After manually starting SCST, and plugging everything in, I was even able to get ESXi to connect and run VMs using round robin to both servers!
However, I wasnt done and its nowhere near ready for production. When I rebooted one of the hosts, I encountered something odd. The MD arrays were no longer there. Looking in /var/log/boot, I saw "mdadm: failed to RUN_ARRAY /dev/md0: Transport endpoint is not connected".
I rebooted the second host to find it had the same errors. When I ran "mdadm --assemble --scan", each host will only connect a random number of arrays. but If i give it some time, and run the command again, all will get detected and rebuilt.
PS: I also see that mdadm is now allowing Raid10 in experimental arrays. Has this been added to ESOS?
Current Details:
Supermicro SSG-2027B-DE2R24L (2-Node, 24x2.5")
ESXi Hypervisor (until I finish configuring)
VM - ESOS 3.0.12-z
