Re: How to check multipath on HP-UX server
Can we have more information regarding your server? Which HP UX version it is ?
If the server is older or HPUX 11i V2 then it may use PVlinks or if patched enough to the latest, you will have Agile device names which is a default feature of 11i V3(called Native Multipathing).
You can identify PVlinks if they are used, using vgdisplay -v vgname command.
You can check the lvmtab file also to see the kind of multipathing used.
# strings /etc/lvmtab
Or if Agile device names(Native Multipathing) are used then ioscan -fnNkC disk and ioscan -m dsf can help you to see the necessary output.
There is another chance that a third party or add on multipathing (eg Securepath) software is used, in such case you need to use software specific commands to administer them.

Re: How to check multipath on HP-UX server
Apart from this, ioscan -fnC disk, the evainfo (EVA) and xpinfo (XP) commands (depending on the storage)can be used to identify luns and multipaths

Re: How to check multipath on HP-UX server
On HP UX 11i v3, issue this command.
ioscan -m lun
The result is a listing of the device HWPath, and the corresponding LUNPaths. This however does not give the status os the paths.The command
ioscan -m lun -H H/WPath(64000/0xfa00/0x0)
gives more detail on the status of each path, say online, standby....
