[Xen-API] XCP and Emulex LP1150

[Philipp Flesch <philipp@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi from Germany,
I started the last days to change your development-plattform from ESXi 
to XCP (we use XenServer Enterprise in your productive Farm).
Installation on PowerEdge 6850 finished fine ... all servers are up and 
running and grouped in one ressource-pool.
But how to (direct) connect the EMC AX100 via Emulex LP1150? Under ESXi 
everything worked and I didn't change any SAN settings or cables ...
Starting xsconsole -> Disks and Storage Repositories -> Create New 
Storage Repository the new drive is found ... but then the creation of 
the partion failed ...
fdisk /dev/sdb fails, too ...

looking at /var/log/messages I get

[root@xen11 tmp]# grep "sdb" /var/log/messages |more

Have you got any hints to solve this issue??

Thank you very much.
