Hi Greg,
do you have up to date firmware on your SAS HBAs?

Also, do you see any messages logged on the array when the
host boots?

Does the missing lun show up post-boot if you do a devfsadm,
or does it show up automagically at some time after you have
booted the host?

Privately, could you send me the case id too please?


thanks in advance,
James C. McPherson
