I am trying to attach a linux box HP Proliant DL380 to a HP VA7x00 FC storage system. The Driver seems to work i think, because I can see the LUNs in /proc/scsi/qla2300/0 and also in /proc/scsi/scsi i can see them. The problem is, that i can't access them. fdisk /dev/sda reports open failed. So, whats wrong?
Kernel: 2.4.21-243-smp on a SuSE Linux 9.0 ...
dmesg reports the following: -----snipp----- scsi: unknown type 12 Vendor: HP Model: A6218A Rev: A100 Type: Unknown ANSI SCSI revision: 03 scsi: host 0 ch 0 id 0 lun 16384 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter scsi: host 0 ch 0 id 0 lun 16385 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter scsi: host 0 ch 0 id 0 lun 16386 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter scsi: host 0 ch 0 id 0 lun 16387 has a LUN larger than allowed by the host adapter
Something seems to be very wrong here. I don't know whether such a large LUN number is correct for the FC card, but clearly the driver doesn't think so. Maybe you should find out who the author of this driver is and contact them with this problem? -Ti -- Ti Kan http://www.amb.org/ti Vorsprung durch Technik
