Hi, The nexentastor5 driver version in cinder victoria release is 1.4.3 which had some iscsi target portal bugs for multipath. I have then downloaded the latest driver from https://github.com/Nexenta/cinder/tree/master/cinder/volume/drivers/nexenta which had the version 1.5.3. The new version resolved the multiple target portal issue but having trouble in live migration. Everything is working smoothly with the LVM driver. I'll raise a case with the vendor about it.

Hi,
Thanks it was really helpful. I have two backend storages lvm and
nexentastor5 over iscsi. The to and fro migration is working fine on LVM backed VMs.
The problem looks specifically in nexentastor5 drivers. The migration
goes successful but the vm start having IO errors and seeing at nexenta fusion UI, the LUN of that migrated VM was not there.
Odd, neither Nova or Cinder should delete the underlying LUN during live migration, just the host mappings.
I'm not a Cinder dev but if that's an in-tree cinder-volume driver then I would raise a bug, otherwise talk to your vendor.
Cheers,
Lee
