Id you dont have anything plugged into the B ports on the FCAL cards in slots 7 and 8, you will see these errors, and they are normal.

If there IS something plugged into those ports, and you see this error, you may have a configuration/hardware issue you need to contact support on.

Hi Toasters,

I have a F820 (6.3.1R1) which get FC error every during boot up. But once the Filer is up, all volumes are available and can see all disks. Do 'sysconfig -c' and no errors. Try swapping the cable around but same error at boot up. Any ideas?

Starting Press CTRL-C for floppy boot menu

ispfc: Fibre Channel adapter 8b appears to be unattached/disconnected. If

adapter is in use, check cabling and seating of LRC cards in disk shelves.
