I can't make new SAN connections to Emc4500

[WhiteWiz]

I can't make new SAN connections!

we are a Dell shop, this is the layout in question:
Dell 2650 servers with Emulux 9xxx Lightpulse cards, Dell 51f switch (brocade re-label), EMC 4500.

I have loaded the Emulux software on the servers and it sees the cards. I have zoned the switch using world wide names so the servers can see the disk array (and double checked the correct currently enabled config) I have double checked the cable and there are lights on at both ends. I have re-booted the servers, done numerous scan for hardware changes and rescan disks.

I have double checked the config in Navisphere array manager and it all looks good.

What am i missing?

Do you have LUN Masking/Widesky/Volumelogix installed for use with the Symmetrix?

Did you use the correct driver for the Emulex HBA? Should be EMC.

Go to start->programs->hbaanywhere and right click go to properties. At the end of the target path enter "whatever the path" --emc Do the same for the Emulex Config Utility.

i checked that the emulux driver matches the version of other drivers in our san.
it is the Fabric - Automap SCSI devices driver
We do not use any LUN Masking/Widesky/Volumelogix

The Emulex driver and the EMC certified driver are the same driver version #. The EMC driver adds enhancements so you may connect to your disk without issue.
