Once your HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage software and hardware are installed and running, follow these steps to verify connectivity:

  1. Check the state of all Fibre Channel hardware and interfaces. Enter the ioscan command and verify that 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 attached to the Fibre Channel adapter are listed in the ioscan output. For example, if you have a direct attach Fibre Channel device attached to 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 Loop ID of 1. For details on interpreting hardware paths for Fibre Channel devices, see “Interpreting Hardware Paths”.

If all attached devices are not listed or appear as UNCLAIMED, see the Troubleshooting and Maintenance chapter of this guide.
