DEAR VMEXPERTS,
I am doing a new installation of esxi 5.1 on hp dl380 g7 having Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. HP 82B 8Gbps dual port FC HBA onto it and i have installed the esxi when i connect to the host using sphere its not showing the fc hba details instead i can see iscsi adapter with four with names vmhba32-35. iam wondering why its not showing my fc hbas. is it normal or my drivers are mising ?
