After a 1 disk failure from Iscsi, only 1 Esxi can access.

All the others are just with all paths down.

all the servers worked like a charm for more than one year adn suddenly, lost connection with san :smileyshocked:. Only one contiued working.

- The one working is a 4.0. Had the SAN connected but no virtual machines working from this LUN.:smileyconfused:

- The others are 1 4.0, one 5.0 and a fresh installed 5.1

- If i upgrade 4.0 that works to 5.0 or 5.1  --> Stops working.

- All of them exhibiting the same issue: Paths death

- VMkping works and from SAN i can ping ISCSI ports --> no network issue (i even tried with direct connection)

- Rebooted the SAN  --> didnt work:smileycry:

- Rebooted servers --> didnt work:smileycry:

- Changed the affinity of the LUN to all alowed --> didnt work,:smileycry:

The SAN is a Eternus DX60 Iscsi.

The biggest problem is that i have 2 LUN. one in VMFS 3.33 and the other in VMFS 5. Form the Esxi 4.0 that works, i can only access to one LUN...

Any suggestions are very apreciated!
