Failed to connect volume in FC SAN

Problem

The compute node failed to connect to a volume in a Fibre Channel (FC) SAN configuration. The WWN may not be zoned correctly in your FC SAN that links the compute host to the storage array:

Solution

The network administrator must configure the FC SAN fabric by correctly zoning the WWN (port names) from your compute node HBAs.
