External disks not visible after OS upgrade (liveupgrade method)



Dear managers,

I have upgraded OS of my 6800 box from Solaris 8 to Solaris 9
using liveupgrade method. But the problem is that, on Solaris 9 OS, I am not
able to see my all hdd's which are visible on Solaris 8 (original
environment). I am not sure whether it is because of some storage driver issue
or some other problem. I have some disks from EMC and some disks are from
hitachi storages.

I tried to find the details of storage drivers, which are
as follows:

=================================================================
OS Version HBAnywhere version lpfc version
=================================================================
Solaris 8
env 1.0a8 5.01e
Solaris 9 env
1.0a8 5.01e
=================================================================

I am not
sure about the compactibility of these drivers with Solaris 9 OS. Do I need to
upgrade or reinstall these so that I may be able to see all my disks in format
command output? I have already tried devfsadm command but no luck.

Has
anybody faced such type of problem after OS upgrade? Please suggest.

Best
regards,
Sun Admin
