SCVMM 2012 management of VNX 5300

Hello:

I installed SMI-S provider on Windows 2008 R2 server. Was able to add VNX 5300 array to SMI-S provider using testsmiprovider utility.

DV command lists the array.

System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) 2012 SP1 is pointed to the provider using SMI-S CIMXML protocol. SCVMM is able to communicate with the provider. I'm not able to classify storage pools though. Sets Storage Array job in SCVMM returns errors:

26101, "Storage discovery of provider http://test:5988 for user smisservice failed from COREVMM02.dbi.local with error code 3.

Recommended Action

Specifiy valid provider, port and user credentials for storage discovery.

26263, "Registration of storage provider http://test:5988 for user smitest failed with error code HostAgentFail. Recommended Action. Specify valid provider, port and user credentials for storage discovery.

Looking at the CIMXML.log has the following error

1200019
The internal database is in an inconsistent state, and must be fully
synchronized before performing this operation

More details below.

Has anybody came across similar error? Any ideas?

Th  Storage Service
initiates CIMXML calls to the SMI-S provider which is captured in the
CIMXML.log

 

     

In the CIMXML logs it appears that is translated to a call
of Associators with ClassName of "Clar_StorageSystem">

It appears the initial result should be part of…

  SCSIProtocolController " />

An error is being returned which is recorded as the
following
