Zone Problem !!

Dear all,
I am posting this again since I was not totally convinced.

I have been receiving a service event notification for quite some time now, however I do not understand what action is required since every thing seems to be working perfectly fine. The event log below suggests some zone configuration problem in my SAN switch. But what is exactly, please help. I have also listed the output of fcmsutil command.

Shalom,

If no LUN0 is assigned to an HP-UX system, the system often detects the disk array itself as a disk.

Since its really not a disk, EMS then detects and notifies of a disk failure.

Two fixes:
1) Ignore the message, be fat and happy.
2) Have a LUN assigned to the system as LUN0, the message will go away.
