SAN/Solaris: luxadm shows NOT CONNECTED
Hi, I have a question regarding HBA configuration. Here are the commands' output:

# cfgadm -al | grep fc
c1 fc-fabric connected unconfigured unknown
c2 fc connected unconfigured unknown
c5 fc-fabric connected unconfigured unknown
c6 fc connected unconfigured unknown

# luxadm -e port
/devices/pci@0,600000/pci@0/pci@9/SUNW,qlc@0/fp@0,0:devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@0,600000/pci@0/pci@9/SUNW,qlc@0,1/fp@0,0:devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@10,600000/pci@0/pci@9/SUNW,qlc@0/fp@0,0:devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@10,600000/pci@0/pci@9/SUNW,qlc@0,1/fp@0,0:devctl NOT CONNECTED

OS is Solaris 10. Two FC cables are connecting to a Brocade switch. Zone on the switch is not configured yet for this HBA. The luxadm command shows NOT CONNECTED. I don't understand what exactly this means.Please advise. The cfgadm shows unconfigured. I am trying to configure the HBA.

Thank you in advance!

So you have two ports connected to the switch (see the line "State: online").

I know it.

Why luxadm shows NOT CONNECTED, and cfgadm shows Not configured. That's my questionsSmilie

Old 12-13-2011
I won't tell you that, as I don't know the answer. All I know is that those are kind of legacy tools, sometimes useful, but sometimes showing weird output. Most of the time I'm relying on fcinfo when working with SAN on Solaris 10.

Probably I need to configure the zone on the switch, and then luxadm will show connected and cfgadmin will shows configured.

Please correct me if I am wrong here.
