Solaris 10 - QLogic 4060C iSCSI adapter - multipathed (MPxIO)
System: Sun M3000 and M4000
OS: Solaris 10 (fully up to date with latest patches)
iSCSI HBA: 2x QLE4060C (QLogic)
In each system are 2 QLE4060C iSCSI adapters.
I manage to set up both HBA's to connect to the LUNs on the SAN
However I don't manage to enable multi-pathing.
Made the necessary changes to /kernel/drv/scsi_vhci.comf MPxIO is enabled in /kernel/drv/iscsi.conf
However the system doesn't recognize them as multipath-capable controllers.
Anyone any experience with this?
TIA

I have been running some tests with solaris mpxio, dual-pathed to HDS SAN storage.
When I take a path offline, Solaris recognised this and a path is shown as offline in luxadm display <device>. However, it does not recover on reinstatement of the path until I run cfgadm -al.
Any ideas?
