Adding EML to CentOS5.5

Hi!

I've just installed CentOS 5.5 on HP Proliant DL380G5 with two FC HBA and now I'm struggling with adding HP EML103e connected through two Brocade SAN switches. Tape library has two tape drives, each in different fabric. Robotics connected to both fabrics. Zoning is ok - OS sees drives' and robotics' ports, as well as EML sees host ports, but dmesg shows no tape devices defined. /sys/class/fc_remote_port/rport*/port_name shows correct EML WWNs and */port_state shows Online, but OS cannot recognize it as tape drives. I also tried to investigate the problem using QLogic SANsurfer and it shows Offline in front of drive ports. Command View TL shows all drives as Active and Available, FC ports are up

What did I miss? Could anyone please suggest something to find out what went wrong?..

Thanks in advance

NAME
hbaapi - Fibre Channel Storage Network Industry Association Host Bus Adapter Application Programming Interface (FC SNIA HBA API) DESCRIPTION
The Common HBA API provides a consistent HBA standard interface for accessing information in a Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN) that would be implemented across vendors as a standard 'C' API supported by vendor specific library instances. This API library is thread-safe, but threads should not be cancelled when execution is in the API. The following functions are available in the API for managing a Fibre Channel HBA. This API would be exposed to upper level applications to control SAN functionality. Please refer to for details on structures used. 01. 02. 03. 04. 05. 06. 07. 08. 09. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. FCP Information Functions require that the applications calling them have an effective user id as that of the root user (euid = 0). 20. 21. 22.
