ESX FCP host utilities

Hi & Thanks for the support you're about to give =)

NETAPP is a FAS3050C: netapp1 and netapp2

I've installed the ESX FCP host utilities 5.0R1, successfuly but the
configuration fails
WARNING:
The installation process was unable to login to all the connected NetApp
storage system(s) due to improper credentials:
Please specify the correct credentials for the following controller(s):
netapp1
The script was unable to determine the correct settings for your
configuration. After the proper credentials
have been determined, run the following commands:
/opt/netapp/santools/config_hba --configure --access <controller>:<password>

So I enter the following command since were not using SSL
./config_hba --configure --access netapp1:1234
and gives me the following:
WARNING:
The installation process was unable to login to all the connected NetApp
storage system(s) due to improper credentials:
Please specify the correct credentials for the following controller(s):
netapp2
when replace netapp1 with netapp2 the error message changes below from
netapp2 to netapp1, confusing hey.

We allocated storage to the ESX server from both node netapp nodes.

Any ideas on what i should do i already have a case open 2000474215 for
those with access.

Thanks again

ESX FCP host utilities [In reply to]

Anyone expierence this?
I've even tried creating the ports manually using esxcfg-firewall -o and
restarting the mgmt services.

root [at] bc-esx0 /]# cd
/vmfs/volumes/bc-esx02\:storage1/netapp_esx_host_utilities_5_0R2
[root [at] bc-esx0 netapp_esx_host_utilities_5_0R2]# ./install
Would you like use SSL to securely connect to your NetApp storage system(s)
(yes or no)?> no

These tools require several ports to be open in the ESX firewall.

The following ports will need to be opened:
20/tcp (incoming)
21/tcp (outgoing)
23/tcp (outgoing)
80/tcp (incoming/outgoing)
443/tcp (incoming)

Do you want to open the ports now (yes or no)?> yes
