TCP over Fibrechannel

[RMGBELGIUM]

Hi guys,

I'm a little stuck with the following problem :
We have 2 sanswitches (IBM H16) , to both switches there is a machine attached trough fibrechannel.Now we have assigned an IP adress to the FC cards , and we try to ping from 1 machine to the other, but that doesn't seem to work.When I check the SAN switches, I see the port led blinking.The SAN switch hasn't got an FC IP adress yet.Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards,

R.

Your adapter may be configure as a point to point one. In this case you should configure it as an arbitrated loop one.
