L'hôte ESXi n'a pas de stockage persistant.

[Tontonpetit]

Bonjour,

A chaque fois que je redémarre mon serveur, le message cité en titre s'affiche.

Je fais un montage de banque de données VMFS en gardant la signature existante,

tout marche mais dès que je redémarre de nouveau le serveur ce message réapparait

et je dois refaire le même travail.

Quelqu'un peut il m'aider à fixer ce datastore ?

[ThompsG]

Hi Tontonpetit and welcome to the community!

Try mounting the volume using:

esxcfg-volume -M <uuid of datastore>

This needs to be run from the ESXI console.

Kind regards.

[Tontonpetit]

Hello ThompsG,


Thank you very much for your reaction.
I ran the command esxcfg-volume -M 55ded5e0-a68c13e4-95bf-6cae8b39e4aa and it shows:

"Persistently mounting volume 55ded5e0-a68c13e4-95bf-6cae8b39e4aa."

And when I restart the server is always the same, no datastore.
I still have to redo the same operation to see the datastore.

What to do ?

Sorry for my English, I use google translation

Hi Tontonpetit​,

Can you run the following and post the results:

esxcli storage vmfs snapshot list

Also if you could attach a copy of your vmkernel.log

Kind regards.

Hi there,

Sorry but going to need the vmkernel.log from the time there server started to see what might be happening with your datastore. Is it also possible to attach the file rather than paste the contents?

Kind regards.

[Tontonpetit]

Sorry my dear,
below the results after restarting the server:

Hello,

Finally I had found a solution to my problem.
In fact, I first mounted my datastore with the existing signature
to save my virtual machines once again.
(Just a measure of caution).

After rebooting my server (like hab datastore lost), I put my Esxi into maintenance mode then
I mounted the datastore with a new signature.
I once again restarted the server and this time my datastore was present.

So I left the maintenance mode and then I went
the datastore going up the virtual machines on the Esxi and that was no problem.
So even my virtual machines were not damaged after all its manipulation.

That can help someone else.
Thanks to ThompsG for your assistance.

[ThompsG]

Hi Tontonpetit,

Glad you resolved the problem and sorry for not responding earlier.

Have a great day!
