you have to have linux actually vary the FCP device online to get it to drive a login to the fabric.
eg: if PCHID 120 is configured for NPIV on CHPID 1.20 with CU 500 and devices 500-51F and you've attached 510 to Linux, then you have to "chccwdev -e 0.0.0510" to vary the fcp device online and make the WWPN assigned to 510 visible to the fabric. -- Jay Brenneman
