xpinfo and Cluster-wide device special files (cDSF)

Hi

Run 11.31 1009 with Serviceguard 11.20 and cDSF's in use. My xpinfo does not manage to link together a lun to which vg and mountpoint that uses it. I think it has something to do with cDSF in use. xpinfo version 19.01.

11.31 has built in multi-path software called scsimgr. You may use that instead of xpinfo.

What is your xpinfo -il output shows ?

Hi!

Currently Im working on a cluster, with 11.31 (1009) and SG 11.20 - and would like to use cDSF. However, I rely very much on xpinfo to lnik the VG's together with the lvols.

How did this end - did you find a solution/workaround?

Thanks in advance.

The latest version is 20.00 and it is now called "p9000info" - ask HP for it.

Thanks Torsten - does this work with both legacy XP-systems, and new P9xxx's, or only the later?
