You should find out what hba's you have? Emulex or Qlogic. Find the driver and install it. And find out what if any utilities your using, or need to use. INQ, PowerPath = "powermt display dev=all" , HBAnywhere, "lun_scan all" etc. If your using ASM with your Oracle then you may have to use the oracle ASM disk list command, not exactly sure what the exact command is: "service oracleasm listdisks" but, I think you need to have ASM libs installed and be using block devices and not raw devices, which is another thing to check. sweeesh.... I hope i didn't just totally confuse the issue. --- sunhux G <sunhux@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Just to add on a couple more questions : > > > The SAN partitions are "/dev/sdh, /dev/sdv ...
