Default SAN: EVA5000 / hp-ux 11iv2

Hello everybody,

We want to link an rx4640 box (itanium hardware) running into hp-ux 11.23 64
bits against a EVA5000 (SAN)

I have installed the latest drivers and patches for the HBA card ( A6795A)

I have also installed SecurePath latest version

We are nearly sure that our zoning is good

HP docs say that this model of HBA is compliant with EVA5000 (under hp-ux
11.23)

The problem is that our server can't see the Eva5000 : the SMA can't detect
our WWPN's HBA card
( with any other Unixes servers , we don't have any matter connecting them
to the EVA5000)

Our rx4640 says this error message : "ct_query failed. hw_path = 0/5/1/0"


What can be wrong ?

Thx for your help !

What does your switch means ? - Cabling OK ? - Are the port OK and right
configured ? - Is the speed of the port OK ?
Can you post the output from fcmsutil /dev/tdX ?

A search at itrc.hp.com gave some hints about misconfigured zoning, or a
bad cabling, or a bad configured switch.
