Is the module for the qlogic hba loaded


lsmod | grep ql

If so, then

cat /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/#

  where "#" is whatever controller number it was assigned.  If there
is no module loaded, then open up another window with a "tail -f 
/var/log/messages"
and while watching that, perform a "modprobe -v qla2300", lets see what
comes out of it.  If they are seen at this point, make sure you
have the needed entry in /etc/modules.conf and them create a new
boot image.

Thanks
