Yeah, most of the settings are the defaults, however this was setup by another colleague of mine who is not working on Linux and i have taken full control. I thought it's better to understand it now rather than when we have some issues in future. I have already come across a fair few other problems which ive had to sort out, and SAN disks and their configurations seemed to be the cause. Not the multipathing settings but elsewhere, udev rules were changed with no knowledge of what they affected... and i have the joyous job of picking through it all conf file by conf file to see what needs resolving.

Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone knows whether Solaris IPMP can be configured such that the IPs of the physical NICs are not available to applications when using IP4 or if the group address and the underlying physical address are always present?

mp_deregisterplugin
MP_DeregisterPlugin(3MPAPI) Common Multipath Management Library Functions MP_DeregisterPlugin(3MPAPI)
NAME
MP_DeregisterPlugin - deregister a plugin
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lMPAPI [ library... ]
#include <mpapi.h>
MP_STATUS MP_DeregisterPlugin(MP_WCHAR *pPluginId);
PARAMETERS
pPluginId A pointer to a Plugin ID previously registered using the MP_RegisterPlugin(3MPAPI) API.
DESCRIPTION
The MP_DeregisterPlugin() function deregisters a plugin from the common library.
The plugin will no longer be invoked by the common library. This API does not dynamically remove the plugin from a running library
instance. Instead, it prevents an application that is currently not using a plugin from accessing the plugin. This is generally the behav-
ior expected from dynamically loaded modules.
RETURN VALUES
MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER
The pPluginId parameter is null or specifies a memory area that is not executable.
MP_STATUS_UNKNOWN_FN
The pPluginId parameter is not the same as a previously registered function.
MP_STATUS_SUCCESS
The pPluginId parameter is deregistered successfully.
MP_STATUS_FAILED
The pPluginIdparameter deregistration is not possible at this time
FILES
/etc/mpapi.conf MPAPI library configuration file
