Create VC Domain Group or Add VC Domain to VC Domain Group
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 Create VC Domain Group or an Add VC Domain to VC Domain
Group operation is performed and there is one or more server profiles inside the VC Domains that
have a boot LUN that does not comply with the required conditions.
To resolve this issue, use VCM to correct the Boot LUN value in the server profiles. A valid value
is either a three–digit decimal between 0–255 or a 16-digit hexadecimal between 0 and
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. To determine the correct value, access the storage management software or
ask the storage administrator. After entering the correct value, try the operation again.
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 VCM, 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.
Profiles fail to boot from Direct Attached SAN Fabric after relocation to
another enclosure
Profiles can fail to boot because the 3PAR port WWN information differs with each c-Class
enclosure. To resolve this, edit the boot LUN parameters in the profile and ensure that it contains
the appropriate port WWN for the new enclosure that is hosting the profile.
