Hello Forum,
I was setting up the shared storage repositories (SR) of a XenServer pool on FreeNAS iSCSI targets.
First simple tests worked fine.
According to http://wiki.freenas.org/index.php/ISCSI#Initiators
"A clustered filesystem is required on the block device" or
"care must be taken that only one initiator at a time has read/write access"
QNAP is talking here: http://www.qnap.com/en/index.php?lang=en&sn=2712
about iSCSI advanced ACL in a clustered network environment.
That's confusing.
I cannot find out if XenServer is using a clustered file system. I know SRs are LVM.
Is XenMotion and FreeNAS handling this correctly? Does somebody run this in production?
many thanks in advance, zundero
