LPFC and Powepath Errors



All,

I am seeing these errors after a series of upgrades on our work
machine.After completing these software, firmware and driver upgrades and
rebooting i encountered the following errors.

We updated Veritas vxvm to version 4.1 , EMC powerpath to version 5.1 ,LPFC
firmware for emulux cards from 3.90a7 to 3.93.,gethbainfo ,HBAnyware

Upon reboot the machine complained of the following errors and now a format
command only shows the 2 internal disks only but not the EMC san disks

commands such as
powermt display.......... returns nothing
powercf check.......... says something along the lines of......no valid
config files found
powermt display dev=all shows nothing and sometimes it says Device(s) not
found

All storage gurus please come to our rescue
EMC cant help, Sun also says its an EMC problem ......we are stuck in the
middle


This a snipppet of the errors during a reboot.O

EMC support think we have all the right configurations for our SAN to work
