pve-fcsan 1.4.0
New array driver: Fujitsu ETERNUS DX S5 / AF S3 (fujitsu-eternus), also covering DX8100/DX8900 S4. It uses the ETERNUS RESTful API on HTTPS port 5665 and follows Fujitsu's ETERNUS RESTful API Reference (P3AG-5492).
- Needs controller firmware V11L40 or later, with the RESTful API enabled and port 5665 open in the array's firewall settings. An upgrade from older firmware closes that port.
- The API has no host groups, so each node HBA port is registered as an FC host (
<node>_<n>). Each volume is connected to all of them with one host LUN that is free on every host. The array chooses the CA ports: every port with host affinity enabled that the WWN is logged in to. - Mapping is refused if a cluster host shares its LUN group with a host outside the cluster.
- Volumes are created in thin provisioning pools, thin or thick. Grow, delete and linking existing datastores work as with the other drivers.
- New
t/66-eternus.t(356 checks in total).
A driver is optional. If you create and map LUNs yourself, add no array: pve-fcsan discovers the LUNs, sets up multipath and builds the datastores on any FC or iSCSI array. The README now says so.
Still beta: the ETERNUS driver has not run against a real array yet. Try it with a 10 GiB test datastore first and report what you find.
Install or upgrade on every node:
