Hi All,
After reboot of Storage Processors some secondary HBA's have not detected all paths to LUNS on SAN storage. A manual rescan of hosts has not corrected this even after waiting several hours. BIOS firmware and OS patch definitions are identical on working on non-working hosts. All 4 out of 6 hosts in cluster were affected.
Logged support call with VMware. They have advised some ports on fibre channel are showing as offline.
A reboot of problematic hosts confirmed all paths and devices for secondary HBA were back online.
Has anyone experienced or heard of this issue?
