VVOL Equallogic and VSphere 6

I have been banging my head against the wall trying to get VVOL's established in my test environment. The setup is as follows, 3 hosts, two with HBA iSCSI broadcoms and one Software iSCSI adapter. The SAN is a mixed group, one Dell 6100 w SSD and one 4100 spinning disk. I have the Dell VSM loaded and configured, I've built a storage container on the EQL, and I can configure the access rules for hosts. I have also added the EQL as a VASA provider.

Hosts vSphere 6.0, vCenter 6.0, EQL 8.0.4, VSM 4.5.1.700

For the sake of clarity we'll call the hosts HBA1 and HBA2 and SOFT1

The protocol endpoints show up in the storage devices on all three hosts, but the only machine that can see the PE's and access them is the SOFT1 host. Its also the only one that can mount the VVOL. If I mount it via SOFT1 and choose 'mount this datastore on additional hosts' the process completes without errors, but on HBA1 and HBA2 the VVOL is in accessible.

This is from one of the two HBA hosts (HBA2):

Secondly the datastore is listed in alarm with this error:

Issue,Type,Trigger Time,Status

vSphere HA failed to create a configuration vVol for this datastore and so will not be able to protect virtual machines on the datastore until the problem is resolved. Error: (vim.fault.InaccessibleDatastore) ,Configuration Issue,"10/22/15, 10:33:12 AM GMT",

I'm guessing that error will clear once I get the vvol working on all three hosts.

In addition if I try and zero out my config to rebuild the mess the VSM leaves behind access lists that I cannot destroy.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
