Curious MPxIO problem

Hello folks,
I have a newly installed Solaris 10 system running on a T6320 blade. I have set up LDM with the intent to move an ldom from another blade to this one. So far, so good.

I had the SAN folks make the LUNs belonging to the ldom visible to my new blade and I can see them, all 4 paths. I have run stmsboot and I still see all 4 paths. I have disabled and re-enabled multipath with stmsboot (reboots both times).

On the old blade I see a single path, and the ldom config is based on that, so I want to get mpxio to work, but obviously I need to be careful not to trash the existing data on the LUNs. Anyone have any ideas to try?

Code:
