problems with hsz50

Greetings,
I have stumbled in my last process of disk upgrades.
Replacing 9.1 gb drives with 18.2, disk types rz1ed-vw
and rz1ef-vw are used.
I have total of 6 shelfs, controlled by a single
hsz50.
4 shelfs have been replaced already...some with
RZ1ED-VW exclusively, and some with RZ1EF-VW
exclusively.
All 4 raids (raid 5, 7 disks/raid) are completely ok.

Trying to add another raid5, similar to above, but it
fails from the start. I replaced the old disks (tried
both rz1ed and rz1ef disks), then ran "run config",
takes a while, then errors out, and complains of a
totally different port.

What I have done:
1. switched disks types, from rz1ed->rz1ef (I already
have same types working on same shelf raidsets)

2. Tried adding disks manually (Gives:Warning 9030:
Cannot determine if the correct device type is at the
PTL)....and thus show disk gives:

HSZ> show disk100

Name Type Port Targ Lun
       Used by
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISK100 disk 1 0 0
          Misconfigured: No device at this PTL, please
see user guide
HSZ>

              
then went ahead and created a raidset, and tried to
initialize, gave error no device installed at this
PTL.
so just delete the disks again.

3. unmountd FS's, then performed a controller restart.
Didn't help.

4. Checked the service manual (unfortunately i have
one for v5.1), and there is no corrective action (00)
given for the instance code below.

Error below complaining on unit 205, unit 205 is
online and working without any problems. However, just
to see if the specific disk is to be blame, i deleted
the disk at PTL 5 3 0 (disk530), and replaced it, but
error remains the same.
One other thing I have noticed from below, it shows
the disk type is RZ1EF-CB, while drives are marked
outside as ending in VW. They are all good drives,
have been working before on an hsz70.
Any ideas are welcomed.
