MSA 2050 and Oracle VM server release 3.4.3

Hi,

We have connected up our new MSA 2052 to a pair of servers running Oracle MV Server 3.4.3 via a couple of SAN switches and we without any LUN's connected we are seeing the enclosure listed after a lsscsi command, seems to appear as LUN 0

[1:0:2:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[1:0:3:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[2:0:2:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[2:0:3:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -

When I map two LUN's  - LUN 0 and LUN 1 to the servers I end up with this:

[1:0:2:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[1:0:2:1]    disk    HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  /dev/sdbr
[1:0:3:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[1:0:3:1]    disk    HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  /dev/sdbs
[2:0:2:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[2:0:2:1]    disk    HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  /dev/sdbt
[2:0:3:0]    enclosu HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  -
[2:0:3:1]    disk    HPE      MSA 2050 SAN     V270  /dev/sdbu

LUN 0 still shows as enclosure and LUN 1 is displayed correctly.

The scsi-rescan command issued shows it is changing the [2:0:3:0] entry from enclosure to direct-access

sg74 changed: device 2 0 3 0 ...
from:Enclosure                         : 00
to: Direct-Access      Model: MSA 2050 SAN     Rev: V270
      Type:   Enclosure                        ANSI SCSI revision: 06

but LUN 0 does not show up as a disk.

I could create a dummy LUN 0 of 1GB and apply this to get round the enclosure issue but would rather fix it correctly.

Could anyone provide any guidance on how to resolve this.

Thanks

Andy
