I'm building a new xsan 2 storage array with three A24F-R2430. I have the same setup with 16 bay infortrends that basiclly work with out to much tweaking. But with these new A24F-R2430 Das my switch does not even give link to the Das. I have tried to switch it from local loop to point 2 point and still no link. I have tried diffrent GBICS. And same issue. If any one has one into similar issue can you please let me know what the resolution may be.

I think you have already created a lun - if thats the case, are you seeing connectivity in system profiler for the fibre channel?
Did you check the Fibre speed on the client?
Re-seat the controller on the Infortrend?

Is the switch fully licensed?

Are the GBICs pumping light out?
