Note:- We are already in process to Upgarde from 7.6.0.4 to 7.7.3 very Soon .  :)

  • Hey, please check with your SAN team if the zones were moved to the new SAN switch. Also I would run device rescan on OS level on this FT server - to refresh the underlying HW (if proper zones are in place). Depending what FC HBAs you do use I would its software (ie sansurfer for emulex) to check what this HBA do see... Further steps depends on the above outcomes...
