Logical Build of the VB540 should be using PowerPath for multipathing on all ESXi host blades. Is it OK to approve pre-check conditions and proceed with XtremIO 4.0 upgrade if vSphere 6.0 hosts are not running Update 2?Īs part of the XtremIO 4.0 pre-upgrade check there is an EMC recommendation not to proceed on vSphere 6.0 hosts using NMP multi-pathing unless customer is running Update 2.

The LUN and datastore do not return to availability after this event until the original path is available again or the ESXi host is rebooted.The PDL condition may be encountered on a subset (but not all) paths during non-disruptive upgrade events on certain storage platforms.

Lack of failover to the alternate path result in aborted I/O, this can cause LUN availability issues which in turn cause virtual machine failures.Date, time, and environmental variables may vary depending on your environment. Note: The preceding log excerpts are only examples.
