Infrastructure Software

Hello All,

I am fairly new to solaris and was wondering if somebody might know what these warnings mean in the message log:

Aug 21 21:15:13 blade3 fcip: [ID 842839 kern.warning] WARNING: fcip(0): port attach failed

# fcip(0): port attach failed

The machine is a V890 with 2 LP10000-E HBA's hooked up to an EMC CX300 with mpxio.

I have tested the failover of mpxio and that seems to be working correctly. I can pull a fiber cable and the path fails over to its secondary and when I plug it back in, they automatically return to the primary path. I just recently started seeing these warnings. I have gotten about 3 of these in the past 7 days. All around the same time.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Gary
