Configuring the redundant path
Step
Description
Check
1
Complete any new Fibre Channel cable connections between the MSA and the server.
2
Initiate a scan of the I/O infrastructure to discover the new connection.
From the server console, enter
ioscan -fnC fc
3
Record the World Wide Port Name (WWPN) of the newly added host connection to
the MSA. (This information is required to configure a connection name and access the
control list on the second controller.)
From the server console, enter:
fcmsutil
<fc_device-file>
Example display, using the fcmsutil command and a device file of
/dev/td1
:
fcmsutil /dev/td1
Vendor ID is = 0x00103c
Device ID is = 0x001029
XL2 Chip Revision No is = 2.3
PCI Sub-system Vendor ID is = 0x00103c
PCI Sub-system ID is = 0x00128c

Verify that there is a connection from the MSA controller to the server HBA, and that
the host WWPN is the same as the WWPN of the HP-UX server.
From the CLI of the second controller, enter
show connections
Example display:
CLI>show connections
Connection Name: HBA1
Host WWNN=20000000-C93673BA
Host WWPN=10000000-C93673BA
Profile Name=hp
Connection Name: <Unknown>
Host WWNN=50060B00-00225CB1
Host WWPN=50060B00-00225CB0
Profile Name=default
NOTE:
As highlighted in the example, the connection to the second controller is
recognized, but has an unknown name and undefined profile type.
