Blade 2000 and SunStore A1000 errors

Good afternoon/Evening everyone,

I have a brand new Blade 2000, with a Sun Storage A1000 Raid array connected
to it via a (differential) SCSI-Card.

While setting up the system, I am configuring the RAID Array. However, I've
noticed the following situation, and I'm wondering if I've got everything
connected correctly, etc. etc.

If I go to run leve l0 (the "ok" prompt), and I do a probe-scsi-all, I get
errors when the system is querying the SCSI devices. However, if I disconnect
the RAID Array (of course, with the system shutdown), if I again go to run
level 0, and do a probe-scsi-all, I get all of my drives, cards, and the tape
drive identified successfully.

I think I have some kind of problem with the SCSI card itself, even though
it's the one that SUN specifies (A6541). Has anyone seen this kind of
behavior? Any hints, or suggestions? If I'm missing some "big picture" item,
please do not hesitate to set me straight!

Thanks in advance!
