I'm tinkering with something here at work - since MSCS on iSCSI RDMs isn't technically supported, I'm curious if I can get it stable with the MS initiator inside the VM (protip: MS initiator is actually faster than the RDM passthrough... by a VERY significant amount). Problem is, I keep losing connection to the luns it seems... or corrupting them >_<
I'm just trying to do single path at the moment, no MPIO, and I haven't even put anything on the cluster. Farthest I got was both nodes up, but then it crashed and would never start again.
Just curious if anyone else has tried this before I keep reinventing the wheel. Of course, this is all within workstation, so it may not work at all...
edit: Oh, and ESXx2 in WS for the host... Win2k3 R2 Enterprise VMs. Openfiler SAN. Just curious if anyone's had it work at all, so I know if this is feasible IRW before I spend any more time on it.
edit2: Yes, I know this is crazy.
