Fibrechannel adapters only show up on 3 hosts - ESXi 6.0
We have 9 blades in our C7000 and only 3 of them see Fibrechannel adapters in vSphere (esxi 6.0). This is currently just our lab environment.
The server profiles for each blade are exactly the same for all blades. If I swap a working blade (#8) with a blade that cannot see the FC adapter (#7) #8 continues to work in another bay and #7 does not. I'm baffled as to why 3 hosts show the Emulex adapter in vSphere and all other hosts will not no matter what I try. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
We are currently only using a single Flex-10 module in bay1 and a single 4Gb FC module in bay3.
Screenshots (for whatever reason I cannot upload them to HPE since I'm getting a permission denied)
Image1 - Host1 storage adapters (working)
Image2 - Host2 storage adapters (not working)
Image3 - FC HBA Connections (single FC port mapped)
Image4 - SAN Fabric (all 4 ports in the uplink)
