I asked, what ports a SunFire V440 uses to connect to a HP EVA Storage, because we had a spagent process running wild on one of our servers, that is, spagent (used to connect Server to EVA via FibreChannel) went to over 90% CPU usage, while on other machines it uses below 1%. We got to know, that spagent uses 2 specific ports to comunicate to the EVA and if someone tries to make a connection to these (e.g. portscanners) they go berserk. In summary, no one knew the ports and looking back we a are not still sure, if they exist at all! HP Support just offered us a bunch of questions so we had to restart the server. Since then spagent uses it's below 1% of CPU usage. We are still in contact with HP so we might get a solution that this won't happen again.
