For Solaris 10 Update 3 or higher you can use the new mpathadm command
to see the path states and more for a logical device. I believe the
syntax is something like "mpathadm list lu" and then "mpathadm show lu
/dev/rdsk/.....". For Solaris 10 Update 2 and previous use luxadm;
"luxadm probe" and "luxadm display wwpn|/dev/rdsk......"
 
Whether it works properly with mpxio depends on whether the clariion
supports alua/tpgs. If it does support alua/tpgs and if that feature is
enabled then for solaris 10 x86 it should just work. You can see right
away if mpxio is handling your disk device paths by using luxadm or
mpathadm. Also the devices listed in format should be scsi_vhci devices
and not real hardware devices.
 
BTW, mpxio is enabled by default for Solaris 10 on x86.

Vic

Subject: [storage-discuss] [MPXIO] Clarrion/X86



Hi everyone, 


I am not able to find any good documentation with the use of mpxio on a
x86 architecture with clariion storage. I have found a lot of reference
to command line that are not available on x86 (like stmsboot...), so I
wonder if someone have any documentation of the implementation? 


One more stuff, I wonder if anyone have also some set of scenario to
test the multipathing of mpxio? 


Thx, 

Regards.
