Hardware

I am working on the mpxio enable testing.
I succeeded in getting it work for test server 1
(which has a Qlogic HBA )

Now I want to make it work on test server 2
(which has the emulex HBA).
I was up to the stage where I installed
the Sun San Foundation Package with the
latest drivers and patches.

I unplugged the cable from server 1
and plugged it to server 2 (since i do not
want to trouble our SAN admin staff to assign
new LUNs )
I did the cfgadmin -al command to verify
that the fibre channel is there , to see this line:

c4 fc-fabric connected unconfigured

Then did the
cfgadmin -c configure c4

But after this command it still showed it is unconfigured.

What are the usual reasons for the "configure"
not work ?

Is it due to the SAN side? Like it has to grant my
test server 2 the permission to use the LUNs.
(in other words, I cannot simply unplug the cable
from one server to another to see the SAN disk)
