Powerpath and pv link querry...
ia64 hp server rx8640
HP-UX B.11.23
I have a two node cluster where we used a EMC-SYMMETRIX storage. When created LVM on this one node1, we just got it done by adding one of the paths of the disk where 4 redundant are available. On the other node2, we did it by adding all the 4 paths availbale. Now, one of the fc card failed from first node and which path was configured on LVM in that server. But still packages and applications works well on the other node. Here I do have a doubt whether if I switch back the packages to node1 whther it takes the path automatically using powerpath or do we need to add all the available paths to LVM conf ???

Re: Powerpath and pv link querry...
So no you don't need to do anything with your LVM configurations right now as PowerPath is handling the load-balancing for you, but at some point you should plan to add the other paths in. You can porbably accomplish this with just a vgpexort/vgimport on the non-active node.

Now I don't mean to disagree with Duncan. He's basing what he says on experience. I'm just bringing up what EMC told me.
