Extra WWNs appearing

[Richard Wilson BT]

Hi, I'm using CV 6.0.0.193 to manage two EVA6000 and EVA8000 arrays.

I see some WWNs in the drop downs that should not be there. I.e. They are zoned to one array but not the other but they show up in the drop down for the "other" (they might have been zoned to the other in the past?).

I've checked, deleted, re-added and rechecked switch zoning. The extra WWNs will not disappear from the drop down.

Any ideas?

Yes, they could be cached due to a previous zoning.

From what I have learned so far: sometimes you can get rid of them by creating a host entry with these WWNs and deleting the host entry. Sometimes you have to reboot the EVA.

if they were presented in the past, you would need to reboot your controllers in order to get rid of the WWN's on command view.

Thanks. One of the EVAs rebooted when adding in a WWN that was against one of the controllers and that cleaned up that EVA! Tried to add the ports to a host and delete the host on the other EVA but they just came back into the list of available ports.

Sorted.
