Further I tried installing Emulex driver ver 5-5.20a10 & 5-5.30a2 but no improvement.
Assuming that the problem could be to do with Brocade san switch configuration. I connect to one of the switch.
I see that all the ports from 1-16 are not enabled.when I try to enable them it says not licensed port.
Below are outputs of some DPOD commands.
swd77:admin> licenseport -show

Dynamic POD method is in use
12 port assignments are provisioned for use in this switch:

* 6 more assignments are added if the second POD license is installed
3 ports are assigned to installed licenses:

Do we need to have DPOD licenses to enable internal 16 ports of this Brocade switch? How do we do it?
