According to an incident I was the one to take the blame of i want to start a discussion about an issue of scripted installation.
We have used a a kickstart script to do a broad configuration of our ESXI 5.x several times. This time i was adapting a the kickstart script for a ESXi 5.1 U1 (HP Customized) and i forgot to deactivate the FC connection from the blade server. In the following the installation overwrote a DATA vmfs LUN and i had to restore several running VM´s with a lot of discussions afterwards.
Therefore i want to ask the community if someone really smart guy has dealt with this issue before to keep the silly installation people (myself) to overwrite FC SAn luns without shutdown the FC connections?
I have added a sample ks.cfg to give you an outline what we are installing.
I would really appreciate if someone can give me advice.
