EVA 4400 Multipath Qlogic

[Bvujic]

Respected,
I have Eva 4400 with DL 180 G5 (OS Win 2003 stnd 32 bit) with one QLogic 2460 FC single port adapter. I install SANsurfer_IW_1_0_36_B2.exe, and driver for adapter that come with this sun surfer but in device manager still appear two disks. What I need to install to solve this problem with one phantom disk. Please advice this start to be very painful.

You need to install MPIO multipath software.

And the MPIO manager

MIO driver is a must. After installing the MIO driver, you will still see in Device Manager the 2 disks, and bonus a Multi-Path Disk Device, but in Disk Management will have only one disk, witch is ok.
