qlc(0) is the internal controllers for the dual SCSI disks or if it's
the Qlogic IPS2200 add-in card.

OS: Solaris 10 (11/06)
Kernel: 125100-07

luxadm -e port

/devices/pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0:devctl CONNECTED
/devices/pci@8,600000/pci@1/SUNW,qlc@4/fp@0,0:devctl NOT CONNECTED
/devices/pci@8,600000/pci@1/SUNW,qlc@5/fp@0,0:devctl CONNECTED

Is qlc(0) really /devices/pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp.... ? That
would mean the internal controller would be going bad in the v480,
right?

Thanks, happy holidays.

The qlogic gbic IS the problem, change to other gbic, IBM make are good.
