Today I upgraded one of our KVM physical host servers to Centos 5.6.
The other server remains on Centos 5.5. I've configured a storage pool
in libvirt to use LUNs from an iscsi storage system as the volumes for
each VM.
After the upgrade, I decommisioned one of the VMs and removed the LUN
from the storage system. Normally after this kind of operation, I
simply need to run this command and the server will see that the LUN no
longer exists and remove the volume.
# virsh pool-refresh --pool=dev-kvm-storage
Pool dev-kvm-storage refreshed
This works fine on the centos 5.5 host, but the centos 5.6 still lists
the old lun in the vol-list and displays zeros for the capacity.
# virsh vol-info 7.0.0.26 --pool=dev-kvm-storage
Name: 7.0.0.26
Type: block
Capacity: 0.00
Allocation: 0.00
Do I need to do something different now for the newer version of libvirt
that is included with centos 5.6?
Here are the kernel and libvirt versions I'm using:
Centos 5.6:
kernel-2.6.18-238.9.1.el5
libvirt-0.8.2-15.el5_6.4
Centos 5.5:
kernel-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5
libvirt-0.6.3-33.el5_5.3
Any help is greatly appreciated.
