Re: See two uninitialized disks
Hence, you need MPIO multipathing software.

Re: See two uninitialized disks
There is a minor thing: with VCS V3 the EVA is an "active/passive" storage array and you need to set up the zone so that the server has access to the controller which manages the virtual disks (he must manage all of them: assign vdisk management control on the EVA).
You can still use MPIO with one adapter port and it will take care about which controller to talk to. And the system even has small redundancy: should one controller fail, the server can still access the data through the surviving one.
