Hardware HBA problem
I have worked with Qlogic (Sun) fiber cards a lot and with Emulex fiber cards only a little. Here is the scenario: I have a Sun 490 with 3 Emulex cards in it. A pair are for the 6120 array that is attached, the other is a direct attach so our SAN for Veritas Netbackup to back up the system.I installed the Sun Foundation suite to get all the appropriate drivers installed and these 3 have been working perfectly for quite some time.
However, I recently added a fourth card to access some disk that is being published via the SAN fabric (that I am already attached to for backups!). When I boot the box I see the new wwn number and prtdiag reports the card so I know it is not failed in any way. The SAN disk is supposedly published correctly and I should be able to just do a devfsadm and see the new device in format. It does not show up. I know cfgadm will not report it because it is a non-Sun card. What other tools would be available to see out on the network to check the availability of the SAN disk other than just running devfsadm and hoping it will work? The system did reboot over the weekend but a reconfig was not issued, just a normal reboot - I'm wondering if a reboot -- -r would fix this problem. The SAN people tell me that their disk should be published correctly and I verified no switches/fwalls are blocking it (of course it is a direct attach to the SAN fabric, nothing should be).
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

FISH(6) 							 BSD Games Manual							   FISH(6)

NAME

     fish -- play ``Go Fish''

SYNOPSIS

     fish [-p]

DESCRIPTION

     fish is the game ``Go Fish'', a traditional children's card game.

     The computer deals the player and itself seven cards, and places the rest of the deck face-down (figuratively).  The object of the game is to
     collect ``books'', or all of the members of a single rank.  For example, collecting four 2's would give the player a ``book of 2's''.

     The options are as follows:

     -p      Professional mode.

     The computer makes a random decision as to who gets to start the game, and then the computer and player take turns asking each other for
     cards of a specified rank.  If the asked player has any cards of the requested rank, they give them up to the asking player.  A player must
     have at least one of the cards of the rank they request in their hand.  When a player asks for a rank of which the other player has no cards,
     the asker is told to ``Go Fish!''.  Then, the asker draws a card from the non-dealt cards.  If they draw the card they asked for, they con-
     tinue their turn, asking for more ranks from the other player.  Otherwise, the other player gets a turn.

     When a player completes a book, either by getting cards from the other player or drawing from the deck, they set those cards aside and the
     rank is no longer in play.

     The game ends when either player no longer has any cards in their hand.  The player with the most books wins.

     fish provides instructions as to what input it accepts.

BUGS

     The computer cheats only rarely.
