Hello,

i have added a new cluster to the pve master. If i create a new kvm on the new cluster, the storage is not avaible. The /etc/iscsi/nodes directory is missing.

/usr/bin/ssh -t -t -n -o BatchMode=yes 192.168.1.4 /usr/sbin/qm create 116 --cdrom cdrom --name test --vlan0 'rtl8139=B6:1E:E1:B8:BD:0C' --bootdisk ide0 --ostype other --ide0 'KVM-DATA-01:32,format=raw' --memory 512 --onboot no --sockets 1
Volume group "pve-kvm" not found 
create failed - command '/sbin/vgchange -aly pve-kvm' failed with exit code 5 
Connection to 192.168.1.4 closed. 
unable to apply VM settings -

is this an iscsi storage? try running 'apt-get install open-iscsi' to make sure this package is installed.

 

[valshare]

open-iscsi packages are on all nodes installed.

Please can you post your /etc/pve/storage.conf file?

 

[valshare]

dir: local
path /var/lib/vz
content images,iso,vztmpl,rootdir

iscsi: i4500.eth1
portal 192.168.1.95
target iqn.2004-10.com.thecus:iseries-000a40e50:default-target
content none

lvm: KVM-DATA-01
vgname pve-kvm
shared

Your lvm storage 'KVM-DATA-01' has no reference to the iscsi storage. You created the volume group by hand?

Anyways, just add a reference to the iscsi volume, something like:

lvm: KVM-DATA-01
vgname pve-kvm
shared
content images
base i4500.eth1:0.0.0.scsi-14f504e46494c45007258485239752d316e52422d45626a50

see "man pvesm"

Does that help?

Hi Dietmar,

no i don´t have create it per "hand". I have add it over the web interface.

pvesm list --all gives me:

i4500.eth1:0.0.0.scsi-3202b001378a40e50 0 raw 1048608768


Must i add

base i4500.eth1:0.0.0.scsi-3202b001378a40e50

to the /etc/pve/storage?

yes

If you create an LVM storage and selected an ISCSI volume as base is should be in the storage.conf file too. Is that error reproducabel at your side?

now i have created a second lvm storage on the same iscsi target. The base entry is now stored in the storage.cfg

iscsi: i4500.eth1
portal 192.168.1.95
target iqn.2004-10.com.thecus:iseries-000a40e50:default-target
content none

lvm: KVM-DATA-01
vgname pve-kvm
base i4500.eth1:0.0.0.scsi-3202b001378a40e50

lvm: KVM-DATA-02
vgname test
