Troubleshooting for the Pure Storage FlashArray Array

Updated

After You Rename the Volume Using the VMware Plug-in, Snapshots Fail

Symptom

The snapshot job fails.

Resolution

If the Pure Storage FlashArray volume is renamed using the Pure Storage FlashArray VMware Plug-in after presenting the volume to the host or client computer, then snapshot jobs fail because the vCenter MOB does not get updated with the renamed volume.

Solution

Refresh the Host Bus Adapter (HBA) on the source ESXi, and then run the job again. Alternatively, unmount and mount the volume.
