8. Cancel the configuration of the alternate path B, and add the alternate path D (see section 5.5.4).
9. Click the Apply button to apply the settings of the alternate paths B and D.
10. Make sure the status of the alternate path D is Normal.
Adding alternate paths by selecting multiple external LUs (Add
Paths)
If you want to add paths other than the alternate paths you have set as you have mapped the volume,
you can add paths at one time selecting the multiple volumes that belong to the same external volume
group. To add the alternate paths to the multiple volumes at one time, you need to set on the Add Paths
panel (see Figure 5.18), check the setting on the Path Setting panel (see Figure 5.14), and then apply
the setting to the subsystem. You can also change the setting of the paths by each external volume on
the Path Setting panel.
CAUTION:
After adding paths using the Add Paths window, you can change the path setting for each external LU in
the Path Setting window. However, you cannot delete all current paths to completely interchange them
with the newly added paths. At least one current path setting must remain, even if you added new paths
using the Add Paths window.
CAUTION:
You cannot delete all the current alternate paths to substitute newly-added alternate paths for them in
one operation. To replace all the current alternate paths with newly-added alternate paths, you need to
perform more than two operations and leave at least one current alternate path setting when you perform
the first operation. For the detailed procedure, see section 5.5.5.
NOTE:
Use the Add Paths window to add paths to multiple external LUs at one time. However, path settings
might not be applied because of the current path setting of each volume. After setting paths in the Add
Paths window, check whether or not the new path settings can be applied in the Path Setting window
for each external LU. If the setting cannot be applied, the setting from the Add Paths window does not
appear on the Path Setting window. The setting from the Add Paths window also does not appear
in the Preset list or in the LU Operation pane.
