Powerpath and Solaris

Hi,

My server is seeing 2 disk arrays (mirrorview), now I want to switch the second array (promote),

it is ok, I can see the disks but the links (powerpath) are dead, how can I do to bring them up.

With AIX we execute "powermt remove", then "rmdev -Rdl fsc#", then "rmdev -dl powerpath0"

and "cfgmgr", in fact I want to do the same in solaris (I am not used to it).

Regards

Consty

Hello Consty,

   If you want to just restore the links as they are, a powermt restore will try to restore the links.to

If you want to remove dead paths a powermt check will probe the links, and if they cannot be restored, ask you if you would like them deleted.

The Host Connectivity Guide available on powerlink at:

Home > Support > Technical Documentation and Advisories > Host Connectivity/HBAs > Installation/Configuration

Chapter 11, Migration Considerations , page 237 details information which should help.

Hope this helps,
