Can't Repair SR in XenCenter

Question

I've added in a 4th host to my Xen 6.2 cluster and I'm unable to get it to successfully attach to my existing storage repositories. I'm using 3 older IBM hosts and the 4th new one which is CPU masked so that it successfully joins the pool. I have two fibre switches, Cisco, which have the paths setup correctly for all four hosts to see the IBM san.

Currently I have 3 LUNs available in Xen Centre which are showing as connected to all hosts with the exception of the newest server which is shown as 'unplugged'. When I try and perform a 'repair' via the GUI it fails after PBD plug with the error 'Invalid Argument'

Anyone got any ideas of where I can start to get this problem resolved.

Thanks for reading.

Some further information, if I run #multipath -ll I'm told that the kernel module isn't loaded. I've tried forcing it but it looks like a problem with multipathing — sgtbeano, Nov 04 '14 at 19:00
Please post `lsscsi` for the new and for one of the older hosts. — Nils, Nov 15 '14 at 22:18

XenCenter is skimpy on the error messages. Try via CLI and see if you can make more sense of the error message. http://www.schirmacher.de/display/INFO/How+to+reattach+a+disk+to+XenServer

Sorry, this didn't help. The problem is related to multipath and I'm unable to plug a new SR without this working. – sgtbeano Nov 17 '14 at 08:46
