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
