SolutionYou sort it by vgreduce/vgextend, pvchange will chenge it temporary only.
But as a long term solution you should go to hp-ux 11.31 with a real load balacing ...
For the moment make sure you keep both controllers busy, not only a single controller.
The tool "evainfo" can help you to find out what path belongs to what controller, you will find the tool as part of P6000 Command View at software.hp.com.
Example from the webpage:
# ./evainfo -a -p
Devicefile Array WWNN Capacity Controller/Port/Mode
/dev/rdisk/disk5165 5000-1FE1-5002-E1B0 6005-08B4-0010-2AB1-0000-F000-0053-0000

Since the EVA is an ALUA device, you can see 2 pathes to controller A as OPTIMIZED, 2 to controller B as NonOptimized (standby).
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
