Cause

iSCSI for your initiator(s) is enabled. iSCSI is currently not supported with the Oracle Flash Storage FS1-2 (FS1).

Solution

List the iSCSI service:

# svcs -a | grep -i iscsi
Disable iSCSI:

# svcadm disable svc:/network/iscsi/initiator:default
Delete the host manually once again from FS1 GUI and restart FSPM service again:

# svcadm disable fspmd
# svcadm enable fspmd
