Re: Auto Path for VA7410

Yes, you are right! Auto Path for HP-UX and Windows has been incorporated into Secure Path.
Secure Path is licensed per server not HBA.
For HP-UX and the VA7410 you do not necessarily need Secure Path. You could use PVLINK instead. The difference is that in PVLINK each LUN has one active and multiple standby paths while in Secure Path all paths can be active.
Find more info about Secure Path here: www.compaq.com/products/quickspecs/11402_div/11402_div.HTML
