E3500 internal disk cage + SOC+ FCAL loop

Hi:

   I've an E3500 lying around and I thought of using it as a file server.  I've also plenty of 36GB/72GG FC disks lying around.  I hooked up the internal disk cage to the I/O board onboard SOC+ adapters (slot 13).

- With 36GB disk plugged in (not the supported 540-4525 type), when I run probe-fcal-all, I can't see any of the disk, saying that loop wasn't online, check HW etc etc.

- With 9GB disk (540-3852) plugged, I got the expected output from probe-fcal-all

- With 36GB and 9GB plugged in, I get the same output as the first test.

- The same 36GB disk when installed in an A5000 can be successfully detected by a V480 connected through a qlogic 2200 (PCI Dual FC Host Adapter+375-3030)

Howdy, Stranger!
