Problems seeing raid array attached to a qla2312

[James Pearson <james-p@moving-picture.com>]

I'm having problems seeing a Fibrenetix VP-1242-FC raid array via a 
qla2312 HBA on a dual Xeon box running a RHEL3.0 clone - using a 2.4.21 
based kernel.

The first port on the qla2312 has a Quantum tape library and two SDLT 
tape drives - which the OS can see fine.

The raid array is attached to the 2nd port on the qla2312 - it is 
configured with 3 volumes at luns 0, 1 and 2 - unfortunately, the OS 
can't 'see' the 3 disk volumes ...

The two ports on the qla2312 are scsi2 and scsi3

/proc/scsi/scsi shows

However, at the BIOS level, the array can be seen. Also, the file 
/proc/scsi/qla2300/3 ends with:

SCSI LUN Information:
(Id:Lun)  * - indicates lun is not registered with the OS.
( 0: 0): Total reqs 60, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0, 1:0:00,
( 0: 1): Total reqs 0, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0*, 1:0:00,
( 0: 2): Total reqs 0, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0*, 1:0:00,

which seems to indicate something is there ...

(full output from /proc/scsi/qla2300/[23] below.

I'm using v7.00.03 of the qla2300 driver (downloaded from Qlogic's web 
site).

I've tried:

echo "scsi add-single-device 3 0 0 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi

etc. but it doesn't make a difference

As a test, I attached the raid array to an SGI IRIX server (using 
qla2342 HBA) - and it could see the three volumes with out a problem.

Is there anything else I can try?

Thanks
