Power Path configuration for HPUX servers

[Waqar Razi]

Can some one please tell me the steps to configure multipathing using power path on hpux servers? Or link to any document which gives you step by step procedure to do this.

Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Hi Wagar:

If you mean EMC's PowerPath product, then you should see their installation guide on their website.

If you are running 11.31 then the product isn't needed as the mass storage stack software natively performs load-balancing and failover. This was not formerly available with LVM's alternate (pv) links.

Regards!

Shalom,

The purpose of powerpath is to provide more than one path to each physical disk and load balancing of I/O load.
