Is there any Secure Path commands that can be run to show paths on a server?

We have a HP EVA3000 storage unit attached via 2 HBA fibers on L3000 server. I see both HBA's and EVA3000 connections in ioscan but when doing a lssf * in /dev/rdsk, only one controller is configured. Also seeing only 1 path in SAM. How does Secure Path work?

Secure Path is used to make the multiple fabric paths appear as a single disk on the HP-UX host. It also provides for failover if an HBA path goes bad.

"spmgr display" should provide you detailed information on the number of paths to each Vdisk, their LUN information and path status, etc.

Run "spmgr /?" to view a list of the available commands with Secure Path.
