Hi all

I have a question about adding a lvm storage for all nodes.

I use esos as a storage OS. I use fiberchannel to connect to esos. This works just fine. When I offer a disk from esos to proxmox by using "Devices --> Add Device --> dev_disk" and map that to all proxmox nodes I can see the disk in proxmox. On 2 nodes the disk is /dev/sdc and on one it is /dev/sdb. The disk is seen as:
Code:
Type: Unkown
Model: MR9261-8i

I then used fdisk to create a primary partition (sgdisk -N 1 /dev/sdb reported an error -> Invalid partition data!
) :
Code:
fdisk /dev/sdb
n
[return]
[return]
w
After I did:
Code:
pvcreate --metadatasize 250k -y -ff /dev/sdb1
vgcreate raid10_sas1 /dev/sdb1

And then I saw it as Type LVM on the node I just issued the commands on. I then went to Datacenter to add the storage lvm and checked "shared". Unfortunately I can only see the storage on the node where I issued the lvm commands.

What am I doing wrong here? Did I miss something? Thanks in advance!

Ok, maybe I was just too stubborn to reboot my other nodes.... because now that I did this, they seem to appear and work fine. Is this normal behaviour?
