Hey Mark,

I had a similar problem when we setup our FC drives.  It turned out that
the Emulex LP9000 wasn't supported by Legato.  I put in an LP8000 and
everything worked fine after that.

Hope this helps,

Joel

Hi,  I have an AIX .4.3.3 system with SAN attached tape devices. My
fibre card is IBM which is an emulex card and using the emulex driver.  

When using the lputil utility I can see that my fibre card is available
and I can see that it can see the WWN of the Bridge, robot and all three
tape devices.

When I run lsdev -C -c tape I can see my tape devices with appropriate
device names.

When I open smit I can see my tape devices with appropriate device names
(/dev/rmt0 etc.)

In /dev/rmt the appropriate device names are listed..

But the ./inquire command does not see anything related to the SAN
configuration.   Why could this be and should it prevent a successful
installation.   I would usually use the inquire command to confirm that
all of my hardware is seen by the OS and I can begin to install
networker.

Thanks in advance,  Mark
