Hi all,
I am trying to mimic a production issue that occurred recently where a storage appliance flipped itself and until it was rebooted presented the LUNs as read only.
We have a few ubuntu boxes and I have been told that they should report read only partitions into logs. I want to verify this before making actions / monitors for this, in order to replicate the production issue I attempted to check the read only box in FreeNAS in the extent options, however I was still seemingly able to write to the datastore in VMware.
Is there a way to force a LUN into read only mode and then flip it back? I have created a test lun, so even if it can't be changed back.. i'm not too concerned, i'll just blow it away.
Thanks!
