EMC Host Connecivity with Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs and CNAs in the Windows Environment
Troubleshooting
Basic troubleshooting steps
You can follow this sample procedure for some basic troubleshooting
steps if your configuration is not working as expected. The procedure
below starts at the lowest layer in the host LUN detection sequence
and should be followed in order, moving to the next step only when
the current step appears correct.
1. Check that adapter has initialized, adapter driver is loaded, array
targets were discovered, and LUNs were discovered by the
adapter. This can be done in HBAnyware as follows:
• Verify adapter properties for driver loaded: Link Status should
be Operational or show a specific error to correct. Adapter
summary section should be complete and driver version
information correct.
• Adapters are shown in the left-hand window. Under each
adapter will be discovered targets as well as LUNs on each
target. This should match what is expected and should show
duplicate LUNs if multiple paths are enabled. If targets or
LUNs are missing, verify adapter zoning and array access
permissions/ LUN assignments.
2. If all items in step 1 above are as expected, verify that device
drivers are assigned correctly by Windows, and that all expected
devices are available. This can be done in the Windows Device
Manager as follows:
• Open the Device Manger as noted in “Starting device manager
for Windows” on page 166. Under disk drives there should be
one DGC or EMC disk listed for each device path available. If
disks are missing, recheck adapter zoning and access
permissions and ensure that LUNs are online from the array. If
LUNs appear in HBAnyware, but not in the device manager, it
is likely the LUNs are reported as offline by the array (or are
unavailable to Windows as inactive BCVs, etc.), or did not
have the correct drivers loaded by Windows. If the incorrect
disk drivers were loaded, the device may have a "!" beside the
icon, and viewing the device properties screen should indicate
the actual error.
