  • SnapDrive for Windows (SCW) 7.1.5
  • Raw Device Mapping (RDM)

Issue

  • SMSQL fails to verify backup by "Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping".
  • Backup report shows SMSQL fails to mount snapshot by the error "Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping".

Example:[<HOST>] Starting SDAPI mount snapshot...
[<HOST>] Preparing LUN '<PATH>', for SDAPI operation...
[<HOST>] Mounting snapshot: <SNAPSHOT>
[<HOST>] Snapshot mount failed.
[<HOST>] [SDAPI Communication Exception]: Failed to create disk in virtual machine, Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping -GetLunInformation returned false-<LUN_SERIAL_NO><LUNID>.

[<HOST>] SDAPI failed to mount snapshot.
[<HOST>] [SDAPI Communication Exception]: Failed to create disk in virtual machine, Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping -GetLunInformation returned false-<LUN_SERIAL_NO><LUNID>.


[<HOST>] Error Code: 0x80004005 
Unspecified error

  • Snpdrvdbg.log shows "Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping" with error code 0x80004005.

Example:
PID:<PID>    TID:<TID>    FCPVdisk.cpp@4091        CFCPVdisk::CreateRawDeviceMapping() Lun Path=<LUN_PATH> : FilerName:<VSERVER_NAME>

PID:<PID>    TID:<TID>    FCPVdisk.cpp@4095        CFCPVdisk::CreateRawDeviceMapping() DataStore name=<DATASTORE>
PID:<PID>    TID:<TID>    FCPVdisk.cpp@4121        Failed to Add the virtual Disk through raw device mapping, , error code: '0x80004005', error description: 'Failed to Map virtual disk: Error Adding Raw Device Mapping -GetLunInformation returned false-<LUN_SERIAL_NO><LUNID>'
