We are experiencing a weird issue that should not happen, we think.
We have two MXL fabric switches connected to each other with Forty Gb ports with VLTi. Our SANs are connected across both of those switches with SAN ports split between them for each SAN controller. Our Blades are running VMware and have multiple nics using multipathing.
Everything works, until we drop the VLT for whatever reason (switch change, reboot whatever). When that happens the storage goes berserk and we lose out iSCSI for our SQL servers. We do not know why as this should not happen. We should be able to drop the VLT without issue right? or reboot a switch without losing connections other than to the switch that is rebooting.
Help me Obe Wan you are my only hope! <waves jedi hand> this IS the issue you want to help with.
