Also got another server (did I mention this earlier) that is in the same zoning-group, same OS levels and it could get a new LUN with no problem. So it really seems isolated to this one server. (Which really just makes no sense to me...)
Well, think of it like that: having found out what was NOT the culprit is a step forward, no? ;-)

First off, i suppose you also have checked that the device the disk is supposed to be attached to is also working - if you have all your other NetApp disks attached to FC adapter A and the new one to adapter B then adapter B might be the problem.

I have no experience with the NetApp drivers but maye something is wrong with the ODM entries concerning the device(s). You may try a rmdev -Rdl on the adapter and then a rediscovery via cfgmgr to rebuild that. Notice that to completely clean the ODM you need to varyoffvg all the volume groups consisting of disks coming from the adapter you are deleting. If they are still online they will hold at least one FC connection (i.e one hdisk device if the driver is multipath enabled) open.

I hope this helps.
