That being the case, it's also possible that the LUN is accessible to 
the FreeBSD system, but another application or system has applied a 
SCSI-2 "reservation" or a SCSI-3 persistent reservation to the disk; 
that would prevent the FreeBSD system from accessing the LUN.

Perhaps see what servers or devices the DS4800 thinks is connected to 
the LUN.
