On the service laptop, launch a web browser such as Internet Explorer.

In the 

 field, type http://IPaddress/ where IP address is the IP 

address for the SAN switch and press <Enter>.
The SAN switch web based utility displays.

Examine the Name Server table for the status of the switch ports and the

The following section provides Fibre Channel connectivity problems and 

resolutions when connecting via Fibre Channel to the SAN switch, or directly 

to the library and drives.

Medium changer and drives are not visible in the device manager

Check all cable connections.

Check the SAN switch port LEDs for connection status to the library 

Fibre Channel HBA and tape drives.

If you are connected to the SAN switch, verify that you are connected 

to the same zone as the library and tape drives. If you are unsure, try 

one of the ports on the SAN switch that a tape drive is connected to.

Verify that the SAN switch is powered on and operating normally.

If you are not on a port in the same zone as the library and all 

of the drives, you will not be able to verify connectivity.
