Good morning friends!

It doesn't seem to be an issue with the HBA as the link state is active, however the host cannot see the lun via this hba. Can you try to unpresent the lun from storage to the the host and represent it , then rescan hba.

Can you give me an aid how to do this?

Some doc?

Thank you for this great help!

Sorry I dont have any document. You may involve storage team to do the task as it has to be done from storage side. In case if you do not have a dedicated team , you can refer the documents available from the storage vendor site on that as the steps vary from one storage to another.
