NOTE:

VCEM validates the format of the target LUN but does not verify that it is actually bootable.

Profile move, assign, or failover operations fail and the message "An
invalid boot LUN was entered. Check the Storage arrays for the proper
LUN number" appears

VCEM requires the boot target LUN configuration and server profiles to be either a three-digit
decimal between 0–255, or a 16-digit hexadecimal value between 0 and FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

This message appears whenever a profile move or failover operation is performed with a server
profile that has a boot LUN that fails to comply with the conditions stated here. This situation can
happen when a server profile is created in Virtual Connect Manager, and then you try to manage
it with VCEM.

VCEM validates the format of the target LUN but does not verify that it is actually bootable.

To resolve this issue:
1.

Click the Profiles tab.

2.

Select the server profile that is presenting the problem.

3.

Click Edit.

4.

In the boot target configurations table, change all the target LUN fields to be within the allowed
ranges (either a three-digit decimal between 0–255, or a 16-digit hexadecimal between 0
and FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF).

5.

Click OK.

6.

Monitor the job progress until it is complete.

After the operation completes, you can perform move, assign, and failover operations with the
server profile.

VC Domain Maintenance operation fails when moving Ethernet networks
(VLANs tagged) from a deleted shared uplink set to another

When managing VC Domains with a firmware version later than 2.1x, if you enable VC Domain
Maintenance and delete a shared uplink set, and then add one or more Ethernet networks (VLANs
tagged) with the same name of the deleted ones to another existing shared uplink set, the VC
Domain Maintenance server profile job completes, but other VC Domain Group members might
be changed to "Mismatch Configuration" status. When trying to resynchronize such mismatched
VC Domains, the VC Domain Maintenance job fails and the following message appears in the job
details:

"Virtual Connect Manager cannot perform the requested operation. Possible

reason is the user deleted a shared uplink set and its Ethernet Networks

(VLANs tagged), then added one or more Ethernet Networks (VLANs tagged)

with the same name of the deleted ones to another existing Shared Uplink

Set."

To resolve this issue:
1.

Click the VC domains tab, and select the VC Domain where the changes were made during
the VC Domain Maintenance operation.

2.

Click VC Domain Maintenance, and enable VC Domain Maintenance again by clicking Make
changes via VC Manager.

3.

In the Virtual Connect Manager user interface, delete the Ethernet networks (VLANs tagged)
that were moved from the deleted shared uplink set to another shared uplink set.

4.

Go back to VCEM, and complete VC Domain Maintenance by clicking Complete VC Domain
Maintenance.

Profile move, assign, or failover operations fail and the message "An invalid boot LUN was entered. Check the Storage arrays

for the proper LUN number" appears
