LSI megaraid storage manager

[DIESOFTWARE-RS]

When you configure the MSM, do not let it discover all the controllers in your network.
Configure it to only see a single IP at a time, and it will work.
You can even start a second instance to log to a second system.

Please read again what I wrote before.
Of course we had MSM setup not to discover anything and entered the ip manually.

Again what we did:

We changed the PASSWORD for the user "raid" in DSS V7 WEBGUI in Setup/Hardware Raid,
which made the system unaccessable for MSM !
And this is not reversible !

We have two DSS V7. Lucky, that we did the password change only on one system,
the other system is still accessible via MSM by user "raid" password "raid" as the first system was before.

When you start MSM, is it listing both nodes as available to connect to?
This is the problem, force it to list only one, and you should be able to log in. Clear the favorites list, so listing only a single node.

Thanks a lot, that does the trick.

Indeed.
Something has happened in the latest release of MSM.

Funny anyway, they say they fixed that at least for ESXi 5.0:

Guess they need to go back to the drawing board on that fix...... it is obviously affecting more OS's than vmware.

I have cleared favorite list and entered IP_mgmt manually in "IP address" field and then select "Discover Host" button.
Nevertheless, LSI MSM doesn't report (in "Remote Servers" list) LSI RAID controller under Open-E DSS v7 IP mgmt address.
This worked well under DSS V6.
