Adding Fibre channel disks

Hi,

I'm running Red Hat Enterprise. I installed a QLogic HBA in it to attach to an EMC Clariion.
I'm connected, I can see the device from the BIOS on my Linux box, but I can't for the life of me figure out
what device it is or how to fdisk it. Anyone ever done this before? I'm sure someone who monitors this
list mus be able to gove me a step-by-step as to how to see/format that san disk...

Thanks

I have absolutly no idea, so why am i answering you.?
Well, if i am stuck i use www.google.com/linux and type in some keywords in
the engine, now if i use "QLogic HBA" i get more than 100 hits, the first 2
gave me an impression of what is needed.
May i suggest you do the same.
