Once the HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage software and hardware are installed and running, use the following steps to verify connectivity:

  1. Check the state of all Fibre Channel hardware and interfaces. Enter the ioscan command and verify the Hardware State and the hw Interface state are CLAIMED.

    If the Fibre Channel device file has not been created, enter the following commands:

    # insf -e

    # ioscan -f

  2. Verify that all devices you have attached to the Fibre Channel adapter are listed in the ioscan output. For example, if you have a direct attach Fibre Channel device installed in the system, the ioscan output may look like the following:

    8/12.8.0.255.0.1.0  sdisk  CLAIMED  DEVICE  DGC C3400WDR5

    The example above is the hardware path of LUN0 of a directly attached Fibre Channel Mass Storage device with a Loop ID of 1.

If all the attached devices are listed and appear as CLAIMED, the HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage installation is verified.

If all the attached devices are not listed or appear as CLAIMED, see the Troubleshooting and Maintenance chapter of the HP Fibre Channel Adapters Support Guide.
