Make sure all the FC links are up.

luxadm -e port

Also check if you are able to see the WWPN using fcinfo

Oops!! you mentioned solaris 9 so my above commands doesnt hold good for solaris 9. You check

prtconf -vp | grep -i ww
cfgadm -al

Hi All..

Once plug out && plug in luns from storage to server connetivity...

  1. check for multipathing status (dmesg or /var/adm/messages should indicate something related to mpxio)
  2. going further with npadninth's suggestion, post the output of
cfgadm -aol show_DEV_fcp

and

fcinfo hba-port -l |grep HBA
  1. check/reinstall HBA drivers
  2. ping storage array from the host, ping the host from the SAN switch, ping the storage array from the SAN switch (so make sure your FC connectivity is OK)
  3. check your zoning/LUN masking

To me it looks more of a zoning issue rather than an HBA card issue, considering that you have 2 different cards that behave the same. Plus, the pesky card is being detected when booting, but your main problem is the inaccessibility of the SAN disks, from what I understood...
