Viewing the audit log
The Storage Module for vCenter provides an audit log for provisioning operations. The audit log,
provisionAuditLog.txt
, is available in the following directory:
<install directory>/Storage/JBoss/standalone/log .
Creating a datastore
You can create a new datastore on a host or cluster that meets the following prerequisites.
Hosts
•
The host must exist in the vSphere Client.
•
In an FC environment, the SAN must be zoned between the storage pools and the host.
•
The host must be configured as a hostgroup or host on the array.
•
HP StoreVirtual arrays in an iSCSI environment only:
The iSCSI initiator on the host must be installed and configured. ◦
◦ The iSCSI array IP address or hostname must be configured in the iSCSI initiator's dynamic
discovery list on the host.
Clusters
•
The cluster and its hosts must exist in the vSphere Client.
•
In an FC environment, the SAN must be zoned between the storage pools and the cluster
hosts.
•
The cluster hosts must be configured as hostgroups or hosts on the array.
•
The cluster hosts can belong to separate hostgroups.
NOTE: The Storage Module for vCenter does not support configurations that have all cluster
hosts in a single hostgroup.
•
HP StoreVirtual arrays in an iSCSI environment only:
The iSCSI initiator on all cluster hosts must be installed and configured. ◦
◦ The iSCSI array IP address or hostname must be configured in the iSCSI initiator's dynamic
discovery list on all cluster hosts.
