Hi ,

Is there anyone here that have used SAN against IBM DS4800 (Fiber). I
can see disk but i can't fdisk it.

 # camcontrol devlist -v
scbus0 on isp0 bus 0:
<  >                               at scbus0 target -1 lun -1 ()
scbus1 on isp1 bus 0:
<IBM 1815      FAStT 0914>         at scbus1 target 0 lun 6 (pass0,da0)
<  >                               at scbus1 target -1 lun -1 ()
scbus-1 on xpt0 bus 0:
<  >                               at scbus-1 target -1 lun -1 (xpt0)


fdisk /dev/da0
fdisk: could not detect sector size

and dmesg output when system boots:

I have used FreeBSD 7.1 and FreeBSD 7.2 but both seems to fail. On
Storage side I have used Linux and Solaris with/without MPXIO as file
system (there is no FreeBSD )
