controller of an LU is CHA0, and access to the LU is made via only one path
(A). After that access path (A) is placed offline, the first choice for the
switching destination is the other path connected to CHA0 (B). If an error
also occurs on that path (B), then the next possibility for a path comes from
one of the two paths (C or D) connected to CHA1.
When the Lightning 9900V series, Hitachi USP series, Universal Storage

, or HUS VM is
being used, all the paths are owner paths. This means that all the paths that
are accessing the same LU are possible switching destinations. For example,
in
Figure 2-10 Path Switching on page 2-18
, the LU is accessed using only
the one path (A). However, after that path is placed offline, the switching
destination can come from any of the other three paths (B, C, or D).
