Subject: MSA 1000 connected to a DS10 & DS15 systems using VMS
If the MSA1000 gets upgraded to Active/active will the DS10 still see the disks correctly?

Re: Subject: MSA 1000 connected to a DS10 & DS15 systems using VMS
So we don't have to guess what you mean, can you please paste the output of
$ show device d/mounted/full
from each system into notepad, save as a .txt file and attach to message.
Also, are these two VMS systems in a cluster?

I have no experience with the MSA controllers. But these threads may be helpful.

Re: Subject: MSA 1000 connected to a DS10 & DS15 systems using VMS
Anything useful from SHWO DEV/MULTI?
Does the DS10 even have multiple paths to the storage? Are there there more than 1 HBA's (KZPSG) to the switch and on to the MSA?
Is the switch (in)correctly ZONED?
Since is is Active/Passive there is only one link on the storage side of the fibre network right?
I would also recommend going Firmware V7+ on the MSA and go active active. I upgraded my MSA and it was easy enough to figure out.
hth,
Hein.

Have not seen mutilple paths.

Each system has 2 cards.

No zoning on switch.

3 links on each fiber switch - 1 to each system and 1 to the san controller.

Re: Subject: MSA 1000 connected to a DS10 & DS15 systems using VMS
Do you have multiple HBAs on the DS10? Are they both connected to the MSA (via the switch)? If there are two HBAs then you'll have to do some troubleshooting.
