Hello secops

Welcome to Skyline communities!

Is the other host in the environment configured with VMs with the below criteria?

Note: You must use one of these configurations to set up virtual machines.

  • Microsoft Cluster on a Single Host with one or more shared eager-zeroed-thick virtual disks.
  • Microsoft Cluster on a Single Host with one or more shared RDMs in Virtual Compatibility mode.
  • Microsoft Cluster across Hosts with one or more shared RDMs in Physical Compatibility mode.

Note: All these configurations involve the sharing of RDMs/VMDKs. Relevant virtual machine Affinity or Anti-affinity rules must be configured to disallow unnecessary virtual machine migration.

Sincerely,

The hosts affected do have virtual machines with physical mode RDMs with sharing enabled, and those not listed do not have vms with physical mode RDMs.

That would track with why only two hosts are being highlighted for this SCSI problem.

That answers my question, thanks!
