Operating Systems AIX SAN Disk Appearing double in AIX Post 302846411 by dukessd on Friday 23rd of August 2013 08:40:56 PM

As for your old POWER 4 machine the AIX MPIO driver (and the older DS storage subsystems) only support APPCM (Active / Passive Path Control Module) so make sure your zoning only allows one path per adapter / controller - as if it were direct attach.
If you zone each adapter to both controllers you'll end up with a mess in the ODM and get some really strange problems.
