Go to the EVA and in the rear of the disk enclosure, ensure that it has a Enclosure Address Bus assigned. If not, check your junktion box connection.

Tha CAB bus referred to in this thread is the EAB referred to in the previous post.

Hope this helps

Re: EVA 4000: Unmappable Hardware

I check all cables seams all cables connected normaly.

In Controller Events logs I have

The device loop configuration has changed on a HSV200 controller's Fibre Channel port.

An HSV200 controller has updated the physical disk drive map for a loop pair.

The retry count for a task assigned to a Drive Enclosure Environmental Monitoring Unit has been exhausted.

and this three logs repeat every ~10 minuts.
On second EVA2 non of the described events appears

any idea?

Arman:

Are you running XCS 5.100?

Did this "just" happen while the EVA was running? (Already initialized)?

There is a known issue in XCS 5.100 that causes the EMU in Disk Enclosure 1 to reset/reboot/whatever and cause the shelf to look like it is unmappable. If you remove the EMU, wait 5 seconds and plug it back in... it may come back up with no issues. Check in CV-EVA to make sure.

From what I here, it may only effect EVA8000's, but I could be mistaken. I have a customer experiencing this issue and HP has confirmed it. Next release of the XCS "should" fix it, but it is a non critical situation, supposedly.
