Re: Best Practice for XP LUNs on Linux
Then go to 'Application Notes -> Solutions: Linux' and have a look at the 'Native Linux Device-Mapper Multipath for HP StorageWorks Arrays reference guide'.

Re: Best Practice for XP LUNs on Linux
xpinfo might help, see this thread on how to download it:
http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/System-Administration/evainfo-xpinfo-equivalent-for-p9500/m-p/4793048#M391944
The vendors also have their guides, for example

Re: Best Practice for XP LUNs on Linux
Installing xpinfo will help, but I still hope there is a way within Linux to associate a scsi disk device, such as /dev/sdb, and determine that it is associated with a fibre channel HBA, such as /sys/class/scsi_host/host4/device/fc_host:host4. In HP-UX I used the lssf command, but that was an HP creation, as was ioscan, so maybe there isn't a way to do this. Anyway, any help with pointing me in the right direction is appreciated.

Re: Best Practice for XP LUNs on Linux
ls -l /sys/block/*/device
returns a link with the sd* name as well as the host* name, providing the missing link. Thanks to all for their help with this!
