Why there is no replace_dsk on fclp driver HBA.

[chuanpeng.wang]

The server is Superdome SX2000.
The HBA is AD299A.
Connect to a MSL library.
After replacing the router card of the MSL library, the device of MSL are NO_HW on the server. Then plug in the original router card, nothing changed.

fcmsutil /dev/fclp0 replace_dsk 0x3d1700
Error: The specified option is not supported.

Run fclputil with replace_dsk option, there is the same error message.

In dmesg, there is message as follow:
fclp driver at 5/0/6/0/0/0/0 (/dev/fclp0) : has lost a device with id 0x3d1700, PWWN 0x100000e00223e61b.
This device has disappeared from the Name Server
database, LUNs behind this port will not be seen.

I have checked follow patches, no problem found.
FibrChanl-02 B.11.23.0712
Product number B6191AAE, OnlineDiag bundle version B.11.23.0809, released in September 2008 (HWE0809)
PHKL_36363 patch or later (for HP-UX 11i v2)
PHKL_36143 patch (needed to enable thefcmsutil command to work properly with cards that use the fclp driver)
PHKL_31500 patch or later (needed for HP-UX 11i v2)
PHKL_34851 (needed for HP-UX 11i v2)

What's wrong?
Does fclp driver HBA have no replace_dsk option? If so, how to recognize the device?

Or are there other patches needed to enable the replace_dsk option on the fclp driver?

Bonjour,

Honestly, I have never dealt with fclp cards. But we can see that there is no "replace_dsk" option with "fclputil". You can check by entering "/opt/fcms/bin/fclputil" with no option ... :-(

I suppose that you have checked things like zoning, mapping on MSL, etc ... ? If so I am afraid that there is nothing to do but a reboot. Before I would try a "fcmsutil reset" first, but without many hope ...
