MSA1000 BASIC MPIO FAILOVER

i've installed 1 msa1000 with 2 controllers and
2 fiber switch integrated.
The server is 1 DL360 with 2 fiber nics FCA2214DC
The OS is win2003 std.

I've also installed the HP MPIO Basic Failover for MSA 1000/MSA1500 for Windows

At raid configuration, when is necessary to bind the controllers i cannot see active/active the nic's.

When i choose the only one running, after that
i can create the volume yes.. without dinamic failover ..of course..

Thank's for your suggestions

Re: MSA1000 BASIC MPIO FAILOVER

You write you have two FCA2214DC Fibre Channel Adapters (they are NOT called NICs!). That makes a total of four ports. How did you connect them to the MSA?

The MSA1000 controller modules 'bind' themselves automatically. Can you present a screenshot? I am sorry, but it is hard to understand what you are talking about.
