First ensure that you are exporting the slice 2 of the LUN (e.g.
/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2).

  Second if your LUN is still managed by the emcp driver (although PowerPath
is disabled) then you will also face bug 6694540. Please send the output of
'ls -l' of the LUN you are exporting e.g. 'ls -l /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2'
