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?

PARAMETERS
oid The object ID of the multipath logical unit.
pProps A pointer to an object ID that has type MP_MULTIPATH_LOGICAL_UNIT_PROPERTIES structure allocated by the caller. With a successful
