Booting from a SAN

Hi There,

I am booting my V240 server running Solaris 10 from an EVA5000. The system boots fine and there are no issues there. I have created a device alias for each of the 4 ports on the controllers on the eva. These all work fine and the system is able to boot from each port. I have set the boot-device in the OK prompt to try port 1 first; then port 2 e.t.c. When I disconnect port 1from the san, the server try's to boot from that port, this obviously fails - but the server does not then try to connect to port 2- the next alias in the boot-device list.

Does anyone have any idea why?
