Hello Members,
OS: Windows 2016 Server Std
I got into a strange issue on the Windows cluster 2-node setup.
On one of the node. If the iSCSI initiator service is running and conected, it would hang diskmgmt, vssadmin list writers, chkdsk.,
if i make the Microsoft Iscsi service disabled and rebooted , things would work normally again with diskmgmg, vss,etc until i start the iscsi initiator service.
I am looking for some help to clear iscsi configuration or to start from scratch on iscsi part. suspecting some ghost/persistent drives may be causing this.
What has been tried.
uninstall/reinstall drivers from devmgmt.
updated OS patches to latest.
evicted and added the node back.
ran the validation tests -> successful.
Thank you
Venu
