[Info-vax] Setting primary path on SAN

[richard.brock57 at gmail.com]

Hi all,

Recently we migrated our storage from Hitachi VSP to Hitachi 1500.  During the migration festivities, the Hitachi folks rezoned and presented the new SAN along with the old one.  After I 'switched' all storage devices from the old SAN to the new one, the old SAN was "de-zoned" leaving only the new one visible to VMS.  After the "de-zone" operation I ran an SYSMAN> IO AUTO and found that the old SAN paths are showing as "unavailable".  Is this alright?  I guess this will go away after the next cluster/system reboot?

Also, on the old SAN one of the two paths to each device showed as 'Primary'.  This is no longer the case with the new SAN.  Off the top of my hand I can't think of a command which would set one of the new paths as primary.  Anyone?

Thanks much in advance.
