Host profiles issue

Hi

I need to use Host Profiles for my SQL cluster that's contains 2 hosts.

I got this Failure Against Host Profile for one of my host:

       Host state doesn't match specification: device 'datastore' needs to be reset

I have read the KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=200248..., and done what I can do.

I can't disable all, because I have RDM attached to these hosts, and needs to set Device perennially reserved status= true.

It is the local disk for the host that is the issue. I had the same issue for the first host (the reference host for the profile) but when I disabled the NAA id in the profile it was OK.

The NAA id for the host local disk isn't i the profile, so I don't know what to do.

I have also added the NAA id for the datastore to the host profile and the disabled it in the host profile, but it still complain about it.

Which LUN is ,mapped to your VM?

Did you use local disk?

I'm not sure if I understand what you mean?

But I have mapped "normal" LUN and the RDM LUN to Host!

I haven't any VM at the host yet, but when I have that, the VM have disk on an "normal" LUN and RDM.

I use local disk for the ESXi installation. It is only ESXi that uses the local disk.

I was to quick here:smileyplain:

Now I got the same issue on the other host (that is the reference host).

Does anyone have an solution for this?

If I disable the NAA id's that's the local disk on each server, why is the Host Profile complaining about this NAA id's?

If I do something and get the one host compliant, the other isn't, and the other way around!

"""It seems I solved it myself!!

I enabled the NAA id again (that I manually added in the Host Profile) for the local disk on the second host in the host profile, and the host is compliant.""""
