Re: integrating eva volumes on hpux
You need to install Securepath on hp-ux hosts in order for you to see the EVA vdisk in ioscan output. Securepath is multi path software that manages alternate links in hp-ux.

Re: integrating eva volumes on hpux
It is true that you need not have Securepath to access EVA Vdisks. But in that case you should have only one FC HBA connected to the EVA and must configure proper zoning in teh switch such that the hosts see the Vdisk through only one path. If you have not already done please have a look at this whitepaper,
http://whitepapers.zdnet.co.uk/0,39025945,60043254p-39000571q,00.htm
If neither securepath is installed nor zoning is configured then you will still be able to see the EVA vdisks in the ioscan output as hardware paths but will not be able to see the device files associated to them (/dev/dsk/cxtxdx) and hence you will not be able to configure VGs/LVs.

Re: integrating eva volumes on hpux
disk 15 255/255/0/0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HSV100 HP
/dev/dsk/c26t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c26t0d0
Now you can use LVM commands to create VGs and LVOLs.

Re: integrating eva volumes on hpux
This is with 64-bit HP-UX 11.0 with the standard LVM.
Will we get path failover without SecurePath? Will we get load balancing without SecurePath?
Thanks!
