Qlogic Cards and Seeing devices on a symmetrix frame

From: michael_warnock@vanguard.com

We have migrated to Sun's Qlogic from Emulex.

Sol 8 - 64bit
kernel 117350-23
Qlogic Sun HBAs/Mpxio
EMC Symmetrix
VXVM 4.1
============

After our SAN guys put new devices on the wire, we have had issues (
sometimes ) pulling those devices in.

The problem seems to be that I DO NOT see the controllers under cfgadm.
Therefore, I can not use
cfgadm -c configure cx ( which has been the normal procedure )

=============

Any ideas?

1) Why I don't see the controllers under cfgadm
2) Is there a way to pull these devices in.

Thank you
