Hi as the subject line says, I came across these devices at one of my Uni's lab and I'm supposed to integrate these two animals, I've successfully installed and configured a three-node PVE cluster and the Storewise 3700, I see the fiber cables connected between both devices, weird this they were using esxi before I formatted them and they seem to have been using these storage units (there are two) .

Now comes the n00b question, they do not show as storage devices on proxmox, ether lsblk or the WebUI, also I do not see them as RAID virtual disks as they show on my old Dell r710+MD1000 setup, I'm a complete n00b to server storage and which apparently is HBA or the like.

How do I add this storage to my cluster, how do i even make them show under the MegaRAID or whatever under the BIOS?. maybe not 100% proxmox related but i have 3 PVE nodes which are supposed to use these.

Thanks in advance.
 
Did you create virtual disks/volumes inside your storwise'es and map these to the fc ports too otherwise you are unable to see them by lsblk ?
