AB378 not recognized after reignite

[Matt Hearn]

Hi all! I have an rp7410 that came from the factory running 11i. It has a 2Gb dual-port fibre card (I'm not sure of the product ID), and we installed 2 4Gb single-port cards (AB378A) after it was delivered.
I initially configured the box using the OS that HP installed at the factory, and was able to see all our cards and the SAN disks attached thereto, along with the tape drive attached to the 2Gb dual. Then the customer finally got around to sending me an ignite tape of the system they want to duplicate, so I reignited the box.
After it came back up, I couldn't see the SAN disk (although the tape drive was there on the 2Gb card), but I didn't think anything of it; I figured I needed drivers. So I checked the kernel in sam, and everything seemed to be there; to be safe, I moved all the scsi driver in, and rebooted. No dice.
I figured I just needed to patch, so I downloaded the June 2007 11i patches, put them on and rebooted. I still can't see the drives! And an ioscan to check for the cards gives me:

ba 5 1/0/6 lba CLAIMED BUS_NEXUS Local PCI Bus
Adapter (782)
fc 2 1/0/6/0/0 fcd UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN PCI-X SerialBu
s (10772422)

That's the 4Gb card. The 2Gb works fine:

Both cards should use the same driver, right? So why is one working, and the other isn't? Particularly since all the hardware was fat and happy before the ignite!

Thanks!

Also, I thought my fc driver might be old, so I downloaded and installed the 11.11.13 version, and then reran a patch install to see if some of the skipped patches from earlier might apply to the new version; none did. Still can't get it to claim the devices.

Do you have following FibrChanl-01 driver installed?

That was it! I had installed the Fibr-Chanl-01, not 00. Not sure what the difference really is, but I can see my disk now. Thanks!
