spmgr message

[Andreas Berendsen]

We have a Sun Solaris 9 box installed (and working) for many years. Now we decied to install two fca2257p to connect this host to an EVA5000.

After software driver was installed, the fabric swicthes were able to ping the boards but no EVA drives are seeing by the host.

When executing spmgr, the following message is displayed:

# spmgr display
Server: wgtsinf01 Report Created: Fri, Mar 23 15:11:05 2007
Command: spmgr display
Error: This host is not authorized to connect to remote host.

After checking /dev and /devices, no "swsp*' files were found.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Did you correctly present the vdisk to the HOST, selecting Solaris as OS?
What about zoning?

Also, did you define the hostgroup definition for your Sun machine on your CommandView? Does your CommandView even see the Sun HBAs?

And did you present a presentation LUN at least?

Things to remember:

You need to install SecurePath 3.0c or 3.0D at least IF your EVA is VCS 3.X.

After you install SecurePath, you need to reboot for Sun to recognize the LUN presented to it.

Hello Andreas,

I had the same issue.
I fix it with the follow:

# ./sbin/init.d/spinit stop
# ./sbin/init.d/spinit start
# spmgr client add ip_host


i expect that help you

bye.
