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?

Yeah, it must register with the name services on the switch, if I remember correctly. Must be the same as with fibre channel, the name services must pick it up to be able to serve the name further on to the SAN.

The problem with FCoE is, imho, that the adaptors doesn't have any bios to check. In FC you go inte the bios and check the presence of storage devices, I don't think you got that possibility in FCoE adaptors, do you? But can you perhaps bypass the switch, and see if you can pick up any device directly?

By the way, what kind of switch do you use? I know there are FCoE switches that have different FCoE ports and FC ports...I mean, if you confused those ports...?
