You don't. You still will see multiple paths to the storage but a volume group will be able to identify the paths that correspond with the same virtual disk.

Hi,

you will see up to 4 pathes to a vdisk, but you can handle this using pvlinks and don't need secure path.

You don't need it, but you can use it, see:
