Peraphs I have a problem with LUN0: during installation phase, command 'vfpfmt' gave me the message' Not enough drives'.
Please help, there is no documentation.

Re: I'm not able to see a VA7400 from the host
Are both devices attached to the Brocade? (I know dumb question, but I have to ask)
Also, verify that the switch and the VA7400 are both set at the same speed (1 Gbit/s). To do that on the VA7400, connect via serial cable and type "vfpmgr -S 1 -c 1". Repeat for the other controller (change the second 1 to 2)
To fix Lun0, connected via the serial cable and run vfpcfg -L 0 -d to remove LUN0. The recreated it (vgpcfg -L 0 -a
Hope this helps

Re: I'm not able to see a VA7400 from the host
I recreated LUN 0 with command you suggested but I'm still unable to see anything in 'armtopology' output.
Brocade switch is not zoned and already working with other hosts, disks and DLTs.
Other suggestions?
Thanks again

Re: I'm not able to see a VA7400 from the host
are the FC port defined as Fabric
a) on the VA
b) on the brocade ?
I had the same problem and after I changed the topology on the va to fabric AND changed the port on the brocade (disable quick loop) armdisp -i showed the VA7400.
On the brocade "switchshow" must show the ports as "F-Port"
Hope this helps.
Regards
Stephan

Re: I'm not able to see a VA7400 from the host
'armdsp -i' gives nothing.
I think it is a problem with LUN0. I tried to delete LUN0 with 'vfpcfg -L 0 -d', to re-create it with 'vfpfmt' (it gives 'Not enough drives' message and then reinitialize array) and with 'vgpcfg -L 0 -a
What else can I do?
Thanks again

Re: I'm not able to see a VA7400 from the host
I opened a support call with HP-Italy, it seems not a simple issue.
Thanks again

'ioscan -fn' shows controller/LUN0.
It seems a difficult issue,
I opened a support call with HP-Italy.
Thanks

Note that you MUST reboot after this update. If you don't see the array in CommandView, you need this update.
After rebooting, run
armdiscover -f
