There's a possibility you'll need to reinstall the MS hotfix for the storport driver. Check the vendor/tech support notes for your HBA.
Run a emcgrab report on the host. and then run it through HEAT on powerlink. That is the quickest way to nail down any issues.

Ah the joys of not being able to test patches before they go into production. I’d remove the patch(es) first and then contact your vendor to see if they have a specific fix.
