Its been a while since the last time I tried, but as I recall, I used
the SANsurfer GUI, but it wouldn't talk to these particular HBA cards.
It kept showing the cards as being off-line even though they were
clearly working at the time.

My other storage node, which is a Dell 2950 with a Qualstar tape
library
that has 4 LTO-3 tape drives, I can't seem to get it to maintain
persistent
binding. The tape drives are all wired into individual HBA ports on
the
Dell. The HBA cards are Dell branded, but made by Qlogic.
