Shalom,

The MSA-1000 needs a firmware upgrade to properly support more than 1 HP-UX server.

If this has been done you should make sure the wwwn matches the output from fcmsutil

If there is a utility on another system for configuring LUNS on the MSA-1000 it needs to be used to create a LUN to present to the HP-UX server.

I am not aware of such a utility that will run on HP-UX

Karthik,

What is the MultiPathing s/w in use?

Please mention the hosts, OS involved and LUNs presented. Possibly mention the MP s/w in use and status of the LUNs wrt to hosts. The same may givw the clue.

I believe you need to ensure proper version MP s/w to work with the latest 4.48 fmware.
