we have a fastt500, and the fibre-channel disk is actually kind of scsi over fc, so that's not out of line. we ran into this problem trying to configure a snap of an existing disk on a system that's also connected to an emc unit, and running powerpath. looks like powerpath is assuming any time it sees two disks with the same pvid, it MUST be an emc disk. what else is in your environment that might want to think it controls those disks? run cfgmgr -v for more detail.

Problem: I have recently installed a 6227 FC adapter which is attached to a brocade switch which is attached to a 2105-F20. I have the latest Sdd and 2105.rte filesets installed on the server. However when I run cfgmgr to add the LUNS to my system I get the following error:
# cfgmgr
Method error (/etc/methods/cfgscsidisk -l hdisk7 ):
0514-068 Cause not known.
Method error (/etc/methods/cfgscsidisk -l hdisk8 ):
0514-068 Cause not known.
Obviously the first thing that jumps out at me is that it is trying to configure it as a SCSI disk. Any insight anyone can offer is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
