Disable Inbuilt multipathing software of Solaris 10

It should be off by changing mpxio-disable to yes for iSCSI. It's set in /kernel/drv/iscsi.conf

thanks reborg

when I checked in /kernal/drv/iscsi.conf , there is comment(#) in front of mpxio-disable="yes".

Should I remove the comment symbol in front of this line & restart the computer OR just run
#stmsboot -d

and this will configure the /kernal/drv/iscsi.conf file automatically

Please guide me

Regards

Comment and reboot, if memory serves corectly stmsboot does not affect the iSCSI configuration.
