[20:05:40] <kdavy> who's awake?
[20:15:36] <jduggan> i might be
[20:16:06] <kdavy> cool. i got 28 hours of sleep in the past 2 nights. finally.
[20:16:33] <kdavy> now learned another limitation of xenserver - it won't let you move more than 8 VMs concurrently between SRs
[20:24:24] <jduggan> what do you mean concurrently between SRs ?
[20:24:56] <jduggan> you mean if there's two SRs on a pool/host you can only have 8 running total? 4 on each ?
[20:25:07] <jduggan> or whatever combination
[20:30:48] <kdavy> no, MOVE between SRs
[20:31:23] <kdavy> i.e. you want to free up one SR and get rid of it - you cannot just shut down everything on it, do select all and move - you have to do it 8 VMs at a time
[20:31:25] <Trixboxer> hmm
[20:31:51] <Trixboxer> you must be moving these VMs on new SAN ;)
[20:32:09] <kdavy> no, back to the old SAN - having a couple issues with the new SAN
[20:32:42] <Trixboxer> is it due to nw ?
[20:32:47] <kdavy> working with the Nexenta support right now, they're examining the kernel panic dumps
[20:32:56] <kdavy> due to nw? you mean hw?
[20:33:09] <Trixboxer> I mean network bw
[20:33:21] <Trixboxer> or any specific error in logs
[20:33:34] <kdavy> oh, no, the move operations don't go across the network - they go across Fibre
[20:34:14] <Trixboxer> is it popping any error or just refusing to copy VM ?
[20:34:19] <kdavy> i think it's due to Dom0 overload protection
[20:34:22] <kdavy> error
[20:34:46] <kdavy> something about autodetect... i cleared the logs already
[20:36:04] <kdavy> "The device name autodetect is invalid"
[20:36:12] *** Meson has left #Citrix
[20:37:11] <kdavy> but as soon as one of the 8 move operations that are in progress finishes, you can move the next VM with no problem
[20:38:09] <kdavy> of course, in typical XenServer tradition, the error message makes no sense :)
[20:39:39] <Trixboxer> not always :)
[20:40:16] <kdavy> most of the time
[21:00:07] <Trixboxer> is there a way by which xenserver comes to know that the iSCSI storage is expanded from 1 TB to 2 TB ?
[21:05:13] <Trixboxer> detaching and reattaching the storage helped.. but do it from xencenter only as CLI may format old storage
[21:05:35] <Trixboxer> kdavy: have you used openxenmanager for licensed xenservers ?
[21:05:44] <kdavy> no, i havent
[21:06:21] <kdavy> i think it's much more foolproof to create a new bigger SR and move all VMs to it, than resize the existing SR
[21:07:33] <Trixboxer> yeah but what if the SR is same ?
[21:07:58] <Trixboxer> it says that SR already exists while creating a new SR of bigger size
[21:09:33] <Trixboxer> have to go, will discuss later.. good  night
