Hi Andrew! Please see the log with debug-patch. The module is loaded with option qlport_down_retry=1. Adapter 4 is connected to switch, adapter 5 doesn't have cable attached. After reconnecting the cable the disks don't reappear and rescan is stuck. Before applying your patches ghost rport was staying, now it's OK. Thanks, Maxim. # egrep -v 'Vendor|cron' /var/log/messages Mar 3 01:05:17 multipath kernel: QLogic Fibre Channel HBA Driver Mar 3 01:05:17 multipath kernel: GSI 24 sharing vector 0xE9 and IRQ 24 Mar 3 01:05:17 multipath kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:01.0[A] -> GSI 48 (level, low) -> IRQ 233 Mar 3 01:05:17 multipath kernel: qla2xxx 0000:03:01.0: Found an ISP2312, irq 233, iobase 0xffffc20000004000 Mar 3 01:05:17 multipath kernel: qla2xxx 0000:03:01.0: Configuring PCI space...
