clariion, powerpath and HPUX 10.20

Hi all, I installed powerpath 3.0.1 on a D-390 server with HP-UX 10.20 but when I try to install new special files for powerpath devices I get error:
insf: Don't know how to handle driver "emcp"
"Powermt display" command shows only SCSI path to Symmetrix array but it doesn't show my fiber channel adapter connected to clariion.
Despite this, I can see clariion LUN but in thi case I have to manage them using PV link.
Do you have any idea that can help me?

Thank You

Mauro

Re: clariion, powerpath and HPUX 10.20

which model symmetrix and clariions do you have?

As far as I'm aware the older clariions did not use powerpath, and being 10.20 perhaps not at all. the first thing I would be doing is check with your EMC customer engineer, or open a call with EMC.
Anyone for a Mutiny ?

CX700 and 8430.
EMC engineer is getting informations.
Powerpath 3.0.1 is the latest release for HPUX 10.20
It isn't a dramatic problem because what it is important is to 'see' disks and I'm be able to do this.I think it is very strange to see only my SCSI card and not my fc using powermt command.
Thank You

Hi,

I have tried connecting a K-Class with HP-UX 10.20 to the CX700 but the CX700 cannot even detect the UX server. How did you get you UX system to see the drives on the CX700.

It seems Powrpath doesn't support clariion on hp-ux 10.20 but I discovered it isn't a problem. In effect you can not install Powerpath and "survive" to LUN trespass configuring VGs with alternate Link and the correct failover policy on clariion.
