OMSA 8.4 Reports Failed disk on MD3400

Hello,

We have the following configuration 2 ESXi R730 with 12 GB SAS cards connected to MD over SAS cables + 1 Windows Host R730xd with 12 GB SAS connected to the MD. MDSM is installed on Windows Host in host mode + OMSA 8.4

IN the OMSA console I see that it reports taht MD connected to the 12SAS card is failed

But in the MDSM MD looks fine without any issue.

Can some one help me with that?

    Hello Ilya Kulik,

    With an MD3400 you are going to want to use MDSM to manage your MD3400. You will use OMSA if you had just an MD1200 or 1400 connected to a PERC card in the server. OMSA doesn’t always read the virtual disk correctly and as a result of that you will see errors in OMSA but no errors in MDSM. If there is an error in MDSM then there is an issue with your MD3400.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions.
