Red hat linux server lost connectivity to the storage. Please suggest.
The server can be restarted/rebooted? The zoning has been re-verified?

One of our redhat server that was earlier zoned to EMC storage is not able
to see any LUNs/Disks all of a sudden.
We are not seeing any entries in /sys/class/fc_host.
# ls -ld /sys/class/fc_host
ls: /sys/class/fc_host: No such file or directory
# more /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga)
# uname -r
2.6.18-128.4.1.el5
RHEL 5.2 is quite dated, you might consider moving to RHEL 5.7. RHEL 5.8
was just released.
Please suggest or point us in the right direction.
Are you loading lpfc?
What is the output of "lsmod | grep lpfc" ??

The server has been restarted; but no luck.
We don't think it is a zoning issue; because the same storage has been
zoned to another server in the RAC cluster and the other node is able to
see the storage.
Also; the server was able to see the LUNs until a couple hours ago. The
storage administrator does not see WWN's for HBA's login to the SAN fabric.
So at this point it is either kernel/HBA/connectivity issue.

The lsmod command on the problem node (node1) does not return anything. Is
there a problem with the fibre/HBA modules? Can we load them manually?
node1# lsmod | grep -i lpfc
The lsmod command on another node (node2) works fine.

"modprobe lpfc" should work.
I'd also check the output of dmesg after running that in case it says
anything interesting.
