Maybe one of you has experienced something like this before.

I have a host running CentOS5.3, x86_64 version with the standard
qla2xxx driver.  Both ports are recognized and show output in dmesg
but they never find my storage device:

qla2xxx 0000:07:00.1: LIP reset occured (f700).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.1: LIP occured (f700).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.1: LIP reset occured (f7f7).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: LOOP UP detected (4 Gbps).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: SNS scan failed -- assuming zero-entry result...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.1: LOOP UP detected (4 Gbps).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.1: SNS scan failed -- assuming zero-entry result...

The storage device is a virtual tape library on an HP d2d server.  On
the storage device I have configured the virtual tape drive and
controller. I've also added the WWNs from the server and storage into
a zone on our fiber switch, and made the zone config live.

Anyone have some suggestions where I can start troubleshooting this?
