deployment wizard to add SDC only ESX?
Hello,
I'm looking to add SDC only ESX to an existing ScaleIO cluster.
I go the install SDC to ESX task in the main page of the ScaleIO web plugin. the ESX is rebooted but not actually in the list of the current SDCs.
did I miss something? do I need to manually configure the SDC on the ESX host? or do I use the deployment wizard to add an only SDC ESXi?
I did not found a precise mention in the documentation.
thank you
Eric

Hi Eric,
Sorry, I am not fully following - did you actually install SDC on the ESX's using the plugin?
If yes, can you see if SDC is in the VIB list (esxcli software vib list | grep sdc) and whether the MDM parameters were set correctly (esxcli system module parameters list -m scini | head -10)?
If yes, can you ping the MDM IPs from the new ESX?
Cheers,
Pawel

Hello Pawel,
The SDC has been installed with the "install SDC on ESX" feature from the ScaleIO Web Plugin.
But when I want to have it configured through the "deploy ScaleIO system" feature it crash and mention that the ESX cannot communicate to the MDM. If I try to ping every MDM ip from the ESX it works.
And if I manually configure (register) the SDC with the cluster it works.
