zfcp.2a747e <bus ID of the zfcp device>: No handle is available for LUN 0x<LUN> on port 0x<WWPN>

Explanation

The FCP adapter can only open a limited number of SCSI devices. This limit has been reached and the SCSI device at the indicated LUN cannot be opened.

User response

For FCP subchannels running in non-NPIV mode, check all SCSI devices opened through the FCP adapter and close some of them. For FCP subchannels running in NPIV mode, verify the SAN zoning and host connections on the storage systems. Ensure that the zoning and host connections only allow access to the required LUNs. As a workaround, disable the automatic LUN scanning by setting the zfcp.allow_lun_scan kernel parameter or the allow_lun_scan module parameter to 0.
