Adding new luns to mpxio config - showing up twice in format.

Hi,

I have a sun 440, it already has LUN's configured with MPXIO.

I just had more LUNS added, I did devfsadm and cfgadm -al, and they're showing up twice in "Format". Smilie


There are no new fiber cables or HBA's involved, same physical setup, just adding LUNS.

Aren't they supposed to get imported into MPXIO? Do I have to actually reboot for this? Or is there a command I'm missing?

Thanks for any help in advance!

NAME
fp - Sun Fibre Channel port driver DESCRIPTION
The fp driver is a Sun fibre channel nexus driver that enables fibre channel topology discovery, device discovery, fibre channel adapter port management and other capabilities through well-defined fibre channel adapter driver interfaces. The fp driver requires the presence of a fabric name server in fabric and public loop topologies to discover fibre channel devices. In pri- vate loop topologies, the driver discovers devices by performing PLOGI to all valid AL_PAs, provided that devices do not participate in LIRP and LILP stages of loop initialization. The fp driver also discovers devices in N_Port point-to-point topologies. CONFIGURATION
The fp driver is configured by defining properties in the fp.conf file. Note that you must reboot the system to have any changes you make to fp.conf take effect. The fp driver supports the following properties: mpxio-disable Solaris I/O multipathing is enabled or disabled on fibre channel devices with the mpxio-disable property. Specifying mpxio-disable="no" activates I/O multipathing, while mpxio-disable="yes" disables the feature. Solaris I/O multipathing may be enabled or disabled on a per port basis. Per port settings override the global setting for the specified ports. The following example shows how to disable mul- tipathing on port 0 whose parent is /pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@4: name="fp" parent="/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@4" port=0 mpxio-disable="yes"; manual_configuration_only Automatic configuration of SCSI devices in the fabric is enabled by default and thus allows all devices discovered in the SAN zone to be enumerated in the kernel's device tree automatically. The manual_configuration_only property may be configured to disable the default behavior and force the manual configuration of the devices in the SAN. Specifying manual_configuration_only=1 disables the automatic configuration of devices. pwwn-lun-blacklist Allows you to specify target port WWNs and LUN numbers you do not want configured. LUN numbers are interpreted as decimals. White spa- ces and commas (',') can be used in the list of LUN numbers. # # pwwn-lun-blacklist= # "target-port-wwn,lun-list" # # To prevent LUNs 1 and 2 from being configured for target # port 510000f010fd92a1 and target port 510000e012079df1, set: # # pwwn-lun-blacklist= # "510000f010fd92a1,1,2", # "510000e012079df1,1,2"; # FILES
