Troubleshooting possible issues to enable or disable the SAN Client Fibre Transport

If you enable or disable the SAN Client Fibre Transport on a 5220 appliance, you
may need to do the following to ensure that your tape devices are recognized and
the SAN Client daemons are running:
If you enable or disable the SAN Client Fibre Transport on a 5220 appliance,
■
you must rescan for tape devices unless you have persistent device paths
configured. That is necessary because the enable and disable operations cause
the Fibre Channel HBA driver to be reloaded. The reloading causes the tape
device paths on the appliance to be renumbered unless you have persistent
paths configured. Thus, to use the tape devices, you must perform a rescan so
that the appliance can discover tape device paths again.
If you disable SAN Client Fibre Transport on a 5220 appliance and then enable
■
it again at some later time, you must restart any SAN Client daemons that are
running on the client systems. For example, you must enable the SAN Client
on the 5220 appliances before the SAN Client daemon is started on the client
because it only discovers targets on startup.
