What on *earth* does that error message mean? I'm trying to get a HSG80
(DEC FC-attached SCSI RAID) connected to a Solaris 10 server via 'ifp', but
all I get is this error. The RAID unit is attached via a FC hub (together
with a bunch of A5000 arrays that work just fine) and the HSG80 sees the
Sun server just fine and claims everything is just fine...
how many targets are visible in the same loop?
However the Sun server refuses to handle it... (It used to work fine when
it was attached to a JNI SBus HBA on an Ultra2 server - until that server
decided to commit suicide this morning...
You've got too many variables. What else was attached to that ultra2
besides this array?
Any suggestions?

My strong suspicion is that you've got too many targets on the loop
and so one of the other devices in your loop is now unable to acquire
an address at all.
