Hi,
I have asked already in Networking forum but seems nobody knows
I am trying to make work hp blade with netapp storage via FCoE gateway
FCoE subinterface is created and Fabric params are there but it stays Offline
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep fcoe

in debug log I see

in packet capture on FCoE gateway don't see PLOGI
I suspect some issue with a driver on the server side
on each fcoe service restart bnx2fc loads
[ 394.563491] bnx2fc: QLogic FCoE Driver bnx2fc v2.10.3 (October 15, 2015)
maybe it interferes here?
Actually this is my first experience with FCoE , so need your help
