Sorry, i have no idea about veritas multipathing solutions.
I only used native multipath on every linux/unix i worked on.
But, if you presented everything and MPXIO is not enabled..
You will see multiple devices (number depending on number of paths configured) for one presented LUN in the format output.
Also, check achenle suggestion.
*Edit achenle on cards which support NPIV the code you wrote will catch also Max NPIV Ports: resulting in output which is faulty (but will do no damage just print ILLEGAL WWN or alike)
Best regards
Peasant.

I have a new SAN (Fujitsu Eternus 2000) and am trying to setup a veritas cluster on it, however veritas does not see all of the vluns I have exposed to the box. The OS does see them though. I have seen a lot of post about this, but it seems they are about people having just the opposite problem... (0 Replies)

Hi Gurus out there...
I am pondering over a situation where I have non-root access (user account), where I am trying to determine paths (including multipaths) on a host.
"luxadm display" seems very appropriate, but requires root access.
Is there anyway I can get the FC path information?

multipath
MULTIPATH(8) Linux Administrator's Manual MULTIPATH(8)
NAME
multipath - Device mapper target autoconfig
SYNOPSIS
multipath [-v verbosity] [-d] [-h|-l|-ll|-f|-t|-F-B] [-p failover|multibus|group_by_serial|group_by_prio|group_by_node_name] [device]
DESCRIPTION
multipath is used to detect multiple paths to devices for fail-over or performance reasons and coalesces them
OPTIONS
-v level
verbosity, print all paths and multipaths
0 no output
1 print the created or updated multipath names only, for use to feed other tools like kpartx
2 + print all info : detected paths, coalesced paths (ie multipaths) and device maps
-h print usage text
-d dry run, do not create or update devmaps
-l show the current multipath topology from information fetched in sysfs and the device mapper
-ll show the current multipath topology from all available information (sysfs, the device mapper, path checkers ...)
-f flush a multipath device map specified as parameter, if unused
-F flush all unused multipath device maps
-t print internal hardware table to stdout
-r force devmap reload
-B treat the bindings file as read only
-p policy
force new maps to use the specified policy:
failover 1 path per priority group
multibus all paths in 1 priority group
group_by_serial
1 priority group per serial
group_by_prio
1 priority group per priority value. Priorities are determined by callout programs specified as a global, per-con-
troller or per-multipath option in the configuration file
group_by_node_name
1 priority group per target node name. Target node names are fetched in /sys/class/fc_transport/target*/node_name.
Existing maps are not modified.
device update only the devmap the path pointed by device is in. device is in the /dev/sdb (as shown by udev in the $DEVNAME variable) or
major:minor format. device may alternatively be a multipath mapname
