Q: Clients NOT MOUNT the Xsan Volume

I have a total of 2 Xserves, all Intel, all OS 10.6.3, all running XSAN 2.2.1
This 2 are MDCs, the other 8 are clients (Mac Pro) all running 10.6.3, all running XSAN 2.2.1

The problem is that all clients cannot mount the volume , it mounts just in the Xserves. I have gone into XSAN admin and tried to mount the volume but it returns the error "failed to mount volume",

I hope you can help me, thanks.

Xserve, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

    Has it ever mounted? Are you using Qmaster and setting the SAN volume as the cluster storage location?
    Using Terminal, look in the /Volumes directory. You might have a ghost mount, conflicting with the name of the SAN.

    hope this helps

    I agree, open terminal type

    cd /Volumes/

    ls

    You should get a list of Volumes on your machine, if there is a folder with the same name as your XSAN volume your XSAN volume won't mount.
