well, not in that post, but in the first one, where I asked, if anyone 
would spot some obvious errors in my attempt to configure a FCoE target 
in OmniOS.

Yes.

Yeah, I did that as well, but the port actually doesn't seem to login to 
the fabric on the switch. Shouldn't I see some flogi message from the 
target port on th4 switch as well?

I started out with the documentation for Solaris 11, which seemd appropriate and configured a fc target and added a view, which granted the fcoe port access to that LUN, but the ort doesn't seem to login to my Nexus 5500 at all.
