Hello, I am an FCoE newbie. I am using OpenSolaris version snv_134. I have two machines. I created an FCoE Target on the e1000g0 interface on machine1 using the command:
"fcadm create-fcoe-port -tf e1000g0" bash# fcadm list-fcoe-ports -t HBA Port WWN: 2000001b2128e0c8 Port Type: Target MAC Name: e1000g0 MTU Size: 2500 Primary MAC Address: 001b2128e0c8 Current MAC Address: 001b2128e0c8 [b]Promiscuous Mode: On[/b] I created an FCoE initiator on the e1000g0 interface on machine2 using the command: "fcadm create-fcoe-port -if e1000g0" bash# fcadm list-fcoe-ports HBA Port WWN: 2000001b2114432a Port Type: Initiator MAC Name: e1000g0 MTU Size: 2500 Primary MAC Address: 001b2114432a Current MAC Address: 001b2114432a Promiscuous Mode: On I had to use the '-f' option for promiscuous mode to see both the target and the initiator in the 'online' state. I had directly connected the e1000g0 interfaces of the two machines using a 1 gigabit ethernet cable (point-to-point). 'format' command was able to detect two remote disks (zvols): bash# format Searching for disks...done AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c4d0 <DEFAULT cyl 60797 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /p...@0,0/pci-...@1f,2/i...@0/c...@0,0 1. c4d1 <GB0500C8-9QM0YVX-0001-465.76GB> /p...@0,0/pci-...@1f,2/i...@0/c...@1,0 2. c8t600144F03B26CF0000004BE108060002d0 <DEFAULT cyl 1022 alt 2 hd 64 sec 32> /scsi_vhci/d...@g600144f03b26cf0000004be108060002 3. c8t600144F03B26CF0000004BF50E1E0007d0 <DEFAULT cyl 1303 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /scsi_vhci/d...@g600144f03b26cf0000004bf50e1e0007 Specify disk (enter its number): But when I tried to create a zpool on machine2 with either of those two disks(zvols), I got an error: bash# zpool create -f fcPool c8t600144F03B26CF0000004BE108060002d0 cannot label 'c8t600144F03B26CF0000004BE108060002d0': try using fdisk(1M) and then provide a specific slice /var/adm/messages output: May 27 12:36:58 machine2 scsi: [ID 243001 kern.warning] WARNING: /scsi_vhci (scsi_vhci0): May 27 12:36:58 machine2 /scsi_vhci/d...@g600144f03b26cf0000004be108060002 (sd2): Command Timeout on path fp0/d...@w2000001b2128e0c8,3 Is there something wrong with any of the previous steps?
