I know what you're saying but any type of patching can give unexpected results (more so these days so it seems, especially 10u6 thru' 10u9) where firmware levels are involved.

And...the note about 125166-10 being required for some QL cards to work appears in the firmware release notes (strange though that seems).

If it was me I'd give that patch a go and post the results.

I just had a look seems 125166-10 patch is older one an and newer version available for qlogic is 146489-06 .Is this looks ok?

I reckon you're right.

You seem to have an Emulex card in there too. What's that used for? Do you need a patch for that one?

Are you saying 146489-06 is already on the system?

I think the qlogic card is used for fc storage and emulex card is used for connecting scsi tape drive.I guess then i need patch for emulex card ...The patch 146489-06 is not yet installed on my system ..i need to install that then i think.

Yes, I think so.

I'd even try the original patch(es) if the latest one's don't solve the problem. Uninstall one patch and install the other one.

If you've got the latest firmware then I can't see it being anything other than patches for add-on cards.

Perhaps other forum members will think differently.

I had a relook seems my c4 tape library is not using either the qlogic/ emulex card.But its using a scsi hba card .

Do you mean that it's connected to an onboard (M5000 built-in/motherboard) controller?

So the listing in your post#1 showing qlc and emlx not being recognised is of no relevance to the C4 not working?

I'm not too familiar with the M5000 but can you do a "probe-scsi-all" command from the service processor ("ok" prompt)?

If so, what does that say? Should see the relevant controller and all scsi devices ie, the jukebox.
