AX4-5F and brocade 815 HBA direct connection

Hi Community,

I have HP DL380p GEN8 server with HP 81B HBA (Brocade 815 HBA OEM) and Redhat OS and I try to connect it directly to AX4-5F storage without any success :

- bcu utility is not showing any remote port

- emc discovery process is not finind my host (naviagent is running on host)

- fc links are up

Do You have any experience with brocade hba and directly connected clariion storage ? Can You confirm that AX4-5F doesnt support direct connection in P2P topology and only in FC-AL supported for that?

Regards,

Mikolaj Stefaniak

Hi,

I got confirmation from HP Support that 81B cards wont work with directly attached storage so I need to change to Qlogic or Emulex based ones.

BR,
