HGS80 Array Controller Shard disk over to connections

I need to shard unit (disk) over 2 connections.
The connection names are S1-10 and S1-12.
I have a unit with D5. in Raid R5
I have shard the disk with fowling command

Add unit D5 R5 part=1 enable= S1-10, S1-12

If I list show D5
It shows the access = S1-10, S1-12

The problem is I can see the disk in S1-12 connection that means the server with a separate disk.
But it will not show it on the S1-10 connection.

Please help

Re: HGS80 Array Controller Shard disk over to connections

Does the output of 'SHOW CONN' on the HSG80 show the S1-10 connection to be online? Is the OS type set correctly on all connections?
Possibly a zoning issue in your switch(es).

'SHOW CONN' on the HSG80 show the S1-10 connection to be online? YES .

I have not created any Zones on the HSG80.
If I need to share unit over 2 connection Do I need to create Zone.

NO there is no need of zoning

Is this "show conn"output showing s1-10 host-id and adapter-id correctly.check it with the HBAs WWN of the s1-10 system.They should both match.

If s1-10 WWn is same as the host-id and the connections are showing online in the controller,then there is no problem with the controller.
Check for correct drivers in the system..

Re: HGS80 Array Controller Shard disk over to connections

There is more information needed to properly diagnose.

- What server and operating system is involved?
- What does 'shared disk' over '2 connections' mean?
-- shared between 2 servers?
-- concurrent access from a single server with 2 FCAs?
-- concurrect access to 2 controller ports?

- Is this a HSG80 single- or dual-controller configuration?

""The problem is I can see the disk in S1-12 connection that means the server with a separate disk.""

What is that supposed to mean? How can you 'see' the disk? What utility did you use?

How do you know it does not show via the other path?
