Hi,
I have a problem with my Xenserver 6.5 with HA-Lizard Cluster. Due, I think, to an NFS server lock-up, one of my VM's (windows 2008) pegged CPU 0 and refused to respond to input. I force killed it, eventually using the 'destroy domain' trick to fully shut it down but it would not clear 'amber' status. Google suggested a reboot of the physical host would clear the issue. So i rebooted the physical host.
After a series of reboots, some very fervent prayers and a lot more time than seemed reasonable, the cluster came back up. In the interim, I had rebooted the NFS server and it and its SR were now available. Unfortunately, my HA-iscsi SR was not available. I was able to force it to repair and it mounted up.
However, when i tried to start the VM, I got 'the VDI is not available.' I can see the SR and its listing of VHD's but rescan fails as well.
At this point, some more googling led me to try PVScan with the following results...
and vgscan reported...
I've had absolutely no luck finding a way to recover the access to this data.
iSCSI-HA status says...
DRBD Seems happy...
I've got a restore from backup running in parallel but would love to recover the data intact since there was work done since the last backup.
Any suggestions or guidance would be most welcome.
