Same disk appears twice on Disk Manager

adelgado — Fri, 04 Apr 2014 11:18:36 GMT

Hi,

I have a DL380 G4 connected to a MSA1000 via fiber cable. Server has two Qlogic fiber cards connected everyone to a two StorageWoks 1/7 Fiber switch. Also, the MSA 1000 is connected via fiber to Fiber Switch.

Server is running W2K8 R2.

The issue is that any LUN I create and assign to this server is seen twice, I mean, as two units.

I understand that HP Multipath probably is not well installed or configured. Is my assumption right? How could I solve this issue? Wich software / driver do I need?

Thanks,

If you have both QLogic cards conencted you will see all the luns twice. You need to enable MPIO in the OS
