DISKs are gone after shutting down and replace an FC card

Saud
hi there

i had issue with one of MY FC cards on T4-2 servers so system team replace it and start the machine but when launch FORMAT command so i dont see my disks. i have checked at the Fabric switch so WWN numbers are visible and zones are ok and after checking fcinfo hba-port so it also saying that SFPS are online, then i run commnds like devfsadm -C or devfsadm again and again but disks are still not visible
pl anyone can tell me what else i should check to get the DISKS back

regards

Hi,

so your issue is on Solaris.

Check this MOS note , it seems similar to yours -> Hard Disk Not Seen In format After Physical Replacement (Doc ID 2027630.1)

-bash# ./crsctl start crs
CRS-4640: Oracle High Availability Services is already active
