the array show that the masking to the host initiator took place, but the volume is still not mapped to a storage port.

Keep in mind the following:
•Path Provisioning runs within a Java applet. If you receive “out of memory” messages when you view Path Provisioning, you may need to increase the amount of memory assigned to the Java
•If you select a direct attached host, the storage ports appear in the LUN pane with a 
next to
them, indicating they are unreachable. You can still select these storage ports that have a 
next to their icon and schedule the job. These storage ports are shown as unreachable in the user interface because the user interface uses switches to display the association between a host and a storage system. If the management server cannot detect a switch, as with a DAS connection, the user interface assumes the storage ports are unreachable.
•Ports designated as an Initiator on a storage system belonging to the HDS Freedom Storage™ Lightning 9900™ Series or Freedom Storage Lightning 9900V Series cannot be used for provisioning. If you select one of these ports, you receive a message saying that provisioning failed because the HiCommand Database was not refreshed. The management server does not support provisioning for ports designated as Initiators on these storage systems.
•The HBAs displayed may not have a connection to the selected storage system. This provides flexibility. You can select a disconnected HBA for a job to take place when it will be connected to the storage system.
Keep in mind the following for McDATA and Connectrix switches:
•When McDATA or Connectrix switches are discovered through a proxy by using SNMP, you cannot view or perform any provisioning operations for those switches. For example, you cannot view zone sets, zones, and/or zone alias.
•When McDATA or Connectrix switches are discovered by their IP address by using SNMP, you can only view the active zone set and its members. You cannot create, modify, and/or delete zone sets or its members.
•Zone aliases are not supported for McDATA or Connectrix switches.
•You can view zones, zone sets and zone aliases on a Cisco switch; however, you cannot use the management server to create, modify or remove them from a Cisco switch.
•Path Provisioning looks for the names of the active zone set and of the active zones and all of their saved counterparts in the zoning library in EFC Manager. The provisioning job only occurs if those names match.
