Hello!

We have a SunBlade T6300 running a 2.6.26-2-sparc64-smp and equipped with an Emulex Zephyr-X LightPulse Fibre Channel Host Adapter. I'm trying to connect to a Sun StoreEdge 3510 with five scsi discs.

Machine seems to detect card an load the lpfc driver:

!!!and so forth up to /dev/sdf.

I thougth I needed to create an iscsi-target and a LUN so I've been messing around with iscsitarget, ietadm (I couldn't find tgt for my distro) and so forth without any success.

Emulex only supply drivers and firmware as rpm's for i686/amd64.

Now I'm confused and wonder if I'm on the right track at all?

Any help would be appreciated.
