 |
|
I have had XSAN 1.3 (using 2.3TB LUNs) running OK on a 10.4.6 cluster node for a while now but (for various reasons)I have reinstalled OS X Server 10.4.3 clean on the Xserve G5 cluster node and then updated it to 10.4.7 with the combo update. When I intall 1.1 XSAN and then update that to XSAN 1.3 and go to label the LUNs the metadata LUN still had its old label and the three data LUNs were unlabelled. BUT when I go to label them, although they are 2.3 TB each, the "use LUNs greater then 2TB" check box is greyed out. It wasn't before I repaved the servers and reinstalled XSAN.
As it is a pre-operational XSAN I have even gone and deleted and recreated the RAIDs - made no difference!
anyone know what is causing this and how to solve it? |

Turns out I was being very dim; I installed XSAN 1.1 but when I updated to 1.2 and 1.3 I chose to run the XSAN Admin package rather than the XSAN Tiger installer. All I was installing was the Admin app. Not the app. What a fool.
I did have a look at the about menu a few times and it reported 1.3 happily, but when you run ./cvversions from /Library/Filesystems/Xsan/bin you get the real answer...
It looked and smelled like XSAN 1.3 but it was really still XSAN 1.1 |
