SAN

[sanmi]

I installed SUN qlogic cards on my servers (SG-XPCI1FC-QL2 PCI Single FC 2Gb HBA). I downloaded & installed the SAN foundation kit SAN 4.4-11 as well as the install script. My SAN was able to see the hba cards.
cfg adm -al shows :

# cfgadm -al

when I ran cfgadm -c configure c3, I got an error message
cfgadm: Library error: failed to create device node: 5005076300c49b00: Invalid argument
failed to create device node: 5005076300c89b00: Invalid argument
failed to configure ANY device on FCA port
My servers does not see the disks that were presented to it from SAN Storage.
Does anyone out there hava a clue on whta this problem is...

Thanks,
Sanmi

I have only ever used the cfgadm command to "hot-swap" a failed disk on a v440 and used the full text under the Ap_Id column.
So I would suggest trying:
cfgadm -c configure c3::5005076300c49b00

I hope that helps.

Unfortunatley, that gave the same error message....

# cfgadm -c configure c3::5005076300c49b00
cfgadm: Library error: failed to create device node: 5005076300c49b00: Invalid argument

Try this

# cfgadm –c configure c3
