EVA4400 ignoring Emulex and Qlogic FC-HBAs from new 8/40 SAN switch1
I have an Eva4400 with the 2 port controllers in it, not the Brocade switches. Long story short, just connected a new 8/40 StorageWorks SAN switch with mixture of 14 Emulex & Qlogic FC-HBAs connected to it. EVA doesn't see the WWN's available via the new SAN to configure into hosts.
SAN Fabric is flat....that is none of the SAN switches are connected to one another. All SAN switches denoted below are HP StorageWorks:
On EVA:
In controller 1, port 1...I have a 4/16 connected. In Controller 1, port 2...I have a 8/40 connected. In Controller 2, port 1..I have an 4/24 connected. In Controller 2, port 2...I have the new 8/40 connected.
All other SAN switches are working and have vDisks presented to the FC-HBAs connected to them.
On the new 8/40 switch...I can see the WWNs of the Emulex and Qlogic cards, I can also see on Port 0 the WWN of the EVA4400 controller 2, port 2. Via Command View on the EVA, I can see that Controller 2, Port 2 is logged into Fabric and 'good'.
Any ideas why the FC-HBA WWNs from the new 8/40 SAN aren't showing up on the EVA? I've verified the new 8/40 is running the same f/w and zoning policy as the other switches.
Any suggestions would be welcomed....

Re: EVA4400 ignoring Emulex and Qlogic FC-HBAs from new 8/40 SAN switch1
What is your zoning policy?
Unless you are using "DID, PID" zoning, you should not have the same zoning on this switch.
Or is the zoning policy referring to the "allow all" policy?

Re: EVA4400 ignoring Emulex and Qlogic FC-HBAs from new 8/40 SAN switch1
Does that say that the EVA Controller 2 Port 2 is connected to the new 8/40 on port 0?
In the zoning you pasted there is no port 0 mentioned. Well, it says "169,0". Maybe you need to set this to "69,0" for switch69 or whatever the new 8/40 is called?

Johan,
Correct....the EVA Controller 2 Port 2 is connected to the new 8/40 on port 0. On the SAN Port 0 via 'switchshow', I can see the WWN of the EVA Controller 2 Port 2.
The above zoning policy was created for us by a HP Customer System Architect. This SAN switch's id is '69'....hence the '169' that you are referring to in the zoning above.
As I understand it, the uplink port from the 8/40, in this case...port 0, does NOT get zoned.....hence, it's not zoned in the policy stated above.

Re: EVA4400 ignoring Emulex and Qlogic FC-HBAs from new 8/40 SAN switch1
Interesting tidbit of info....I connected Port 0 of SAN69 to a different EVA4400. SAN69 Port 0 was connected to EVA2, now it's connected to EVA3.
EVA3 had Controller 1 Port 0 connected to another 8/40 SAN switch but the other 3 ports were open.....now all the WWNs of the FC-HBA cards connected to SAN69 show up on EVA3.
So, the question is....how many SAN switches can be connected to an EVA4400 that has the controllers with just 2 ports on them?

Re: EVA4400 ignoring Emulex and Qlogic FC-HBAs from new 8/40 SAN switch1
if your SAN switch domain ID is 69, then I'm pretty sure you should have ID 69 in the zone config.

You can find switch69's domain id by typing 'switchshow' in the CLI.

Did you try to restart the controller in EVA2 when that was connected to switch69,port 0?
Maybe that port is not behaving very well, even though it is in a logged in state. Maybe the fabstateshow or fabriclog --show could tell you more about the port.
Does the EVA2 logs say anything when the port is connected to switch69,0?
