ISCSI Lun Gone after reboot ESXI-host

Hello,

i am having 2 ESXI 5.1 hosts and 1 QNAP for iscsi-storage.

When i reboot one of the host, one lun is gone (other 4 luns are available).

I have to the following procedure to fix this:

# esxcfg-volume -m "vmfs_label_name"

and then refresh the datastores in my configuration.

This is happening after every reboot of the ESXI-host.

As i say...the other 4 luns with same configuration do not have this problem.

How can i fix this?

Thx.

esxcfg-volume -m "vmfs_label_name"

Use esxcfg-volume-M

M should be capital as this would be persistenet across reboot

Hi,

Instead of lower case 'm', use upper case 'M',  since this will mount datastore persistently across reboot.

esxcfg-volume -M  "vmfs_label_name"
