Problem in Storage Manager using a SCSI data drive in a Proxmox VM

[maiux]

Describe the Bug
I made a Proxmox VM with SATA:0 imported from arc.img (latest / yesterday - 24.5.16) and a SCSI drive that I want to use as data drive, using DriveIdxMap (activeports or max ports, does not make difference). Once full installed, if I create a volume using Storage Manager (SCSI data disk is seen as SATA but in my ignorance it can be completely normal), I will see 2 storage pools and one of them has the new volume in it. If I remove the volume, Storage Manager remains in an inconsistent state with one storage pool without volumes and does not allow to create a new volume neither remove the storage pool.

Many thanks for your help

These Portmap Options are only for Sata Controller: https://github.com/AuxXxilium/AuxXxilium/wiki/Arc:-Loader-Portmap

Why do you have 2 Sata Controller in VM Config? DSM will show your Disks as Sata, this is nothing to worry about.

I don't know why you get 2 Pools with 1 Disk.

[maiux]

Really don't know why. This sysinfo is with no SATA drives attached and arc.img boot from SCSI: C8FABUGLJ

Wrong code, but where is your problem? it lookes like, something went wrong with your dsm installation.

[maiux]

Found why: it's for the CD-ROM. Check this configuration: E8SFNLAG7 (maybe it does not come out), but in these screenshots yes:

where is your problem? i only see a healthy storagepool?!

I was trying to make an optimal configuration using SATA as boot loader and SCSI for data disk (because under VM is way much performant), and I got stuck with this twin "Storage Pool" problem. If I use SATA for data disk, I see only one storage pool and config is consistent. If I use SCSI as data disk, I got the two storage pool and if I delete it I get an inconsistent situation (I can't recreate it) - check the screenshots on the first post

Check the last screenshot of the first post: healty but 0 bytes allocated - it's an inconsistent config. And you can't add volumes, neither remove the only left storage pool. I repeat, IMHO is an inconsistent cofnig

[AuxXxilium]

if you delete all storage pool, what will happen?

you click on Remove on the only left and nothing happens

Reboot?

[maiux]

the same

[AuxXxilium]

boot to config mode, use format disks function in dev section.

If I can ask, for my knowledge: how SCSI drives are seen by DSM? How loader make them work under DSM?

[AuxXxilium]

They are seed as SATA since DSM can't use them oob. My ESXi SCSI Controllers are working and others don't have these issue with Proxtrash.

Oh, I see. Good luck.

[maiux]

BTW, I was only using the wrong loader: yours. With another loader works like a charm.

[AuxXxilium]

and which loader?

and you selected also DS1019+ in this loader?

[maiux]

I bet you are smart enough to find it by yourself. Thank for your time.

[AuxXxilium]

i know 20 different, so tell me.

mm works here, sata0 as arc.img and scsi0 as first disk, works on a DVA3221 build.. if i remove the storage pool 1 it unmounts the volume correctly and removes the pool, creation also works.
