recently I've reconfigured all storage pools and I've started assigning volumes from LUN ID 1, leaving free LUN ID 0 , as suggested from some colleagues. Is this correct or not? I have this doubt because now, after a rescan, all hosts are still seeing a LUN 0 ID device for every other LUNs defined, but the reported device type is "enclosure", while other LUNs is rightly reported as "disk". What does it means?
You did this correct. As per the "best practice configuration" document, you should not assign any volumes as LUN 0. What you are also observing is correct as the enclosure (controllers) will show up as LUN 0.
(The reason why you don't assign disks to LUN 0 is because the controller/enclosure is using LUN 0)
If you're running a VMware envioment, also make sure you change the "Missing LUN response" option from "Not Ready" to "Illegal Request".
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
