RAID and the VSA for ESX Server
If you have trouble configuring RAID now, you may have made a mistake when configuring a virtual
disk earlier. On the ESX Server, verify that the VSA has at least one virtual disk. The first virtual disk
must be configured on SCSI 1:0. Additional disks must be configured sequentially on SCSI 1:1 through
1:4. VSAs use SCSI 0:0 and 0:1 for operating system disks, and use the disk configured for SCSI
1:0 for SAN data storage. If no SCSI disk is configured for SCSI 1:0, RAID cannot be configured on
the appliance.
TIP:
If you want to clone the VSA for ESX, do it now. You must only clone a VSA while it is in the Available
Systems pool.
Creating the iSCSI SAN
Use the Management Groups, Clusters, and Volumes wizard to create your storage pool. For
information about using the wizards, see Chapter 1, “Getting Started,” the section “Creating Storage
by Using the Getting Started Launch Pad” in the HP StorageWorks P4000 SAN Solution User Guide
or in the Online Help.
