Does iStorage support Xenserver 6.2?

[webguyz]

Installed Xenserver 6.2 in my lab and tried to attach an existing istorage HA setup and it would not see the SR's that were avaiable. It did see the LUNS but when it tried to detect SR's it failed.

Thanks!

FYI

It appears there is a problem with Xencenter 6.2 and Multipath.

I was able to connect to my lab xenserver 6.2 successfully using the xe sr-create command, but this formats the volume. Hoping that Citrix fixes this soon so I can upgrade all my 6.1 servers to 6.2 and retain all my data.

You can attach to an existing istorage HA pair under Xenserver 6.2

First create an SR with a single connection. Lets say I have server pair HA1 and HA2. Create the SR in Xencenter just using HA1 info

Then go into the pool master Console and type
# This next line logs out of the iscsi server if its already logged in
iscsiadm -m node -u -T <your iqn name for HA2> -p <your HA2 ip addr>:3260
# This next line discovers the targets on your second server
iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p <your HA2 ip addr>
# When you create an application in iStorage, it makes the ISCSI ID the same for HA1 and HA2 targets
# This next line logs into the second server HA2.
iscsiadm -m node -T <your iqn name for HA2> -p <your HA2 ip addr>: -l

Just replace the <variables> with your info. When you check the SR in Xencenter you will see it has 2 ISCSI paths and 1 session

Went to get the update and found Citrix had released 6.2 Service Pack 1 which has the update fix rolled into it. iStorage HA works great now with Xenserver 6.2!
