Description Sage Grigull 2008-05-01 00:30:37 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.12) Gecko/20080409 Red Hat/1.5.0.12-15.el5_1 Firefox/1.5.0.12

Description of problem:
q2xxx and lpfc device state information used to be presented by the kernel under /proc/scsi/ and is now exclusivly provided via /sys/

The sosreport captures the required /proc/scsi heirarchy needed by GSS Production support for ascertaining SAN connectivity iusses.  As the information is now presented in a way that the sosreport does not capture, this information has to be specified manually.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sos-1.7-9.1

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run sosreport on system with QLA adaptors
2. open the report
3. wonder what state the adaptor is in.

Actual Results:


Expected Results:
directory tree under /sys/state/

lpfc and qla2xxx are affected, possibly more now or in the future
