i wrote already that i have the problem with the "No Cable", but now i installed the current RC (or Beta? Ver. 2956) and in the "Setup / Fibre Chennel" the DSS told me that there is no FC HBA.
After upgrade the Kernel is switched back to 32 Bit, so i changed it to 64 Bit but then the controller will be shown in "Status / Hardware" but not in "Setup / Fibre Channel".
Has anybody some ideas?
I will try what happens when i switch back to 32 Bit and then back to Initiator mode, if i remember right i switched to Target mode with the 32 Bit kernel. Perhaps i must change this when the 64 Bit kernel is running... I tested already with the normal kernel and with the testing kernel.
I was trying to see if I could duplicate the problem from my end and was not able too - I have the same Qlogic HBA's "ISP2432-based 4Gb Fibre Channel to PCI Express HBA (rev 03)" with version 2956. On the Target I have set to use 32bit single and SMP with TESTING (kernel 2.6.23) also I did a direct connection between the 2 DSS and still was able to connect them both. Both HBA's are at configuration defaults and the only system reboot was the Target system after setting as Target in: SETUP -> Fibre Channel -> Function: QLOGIC Target. So everything was configured from defaults.
