Make sure that there is at least one LU being accessed by a path.
A path can be identified by PathName. The LU that is accessed by a

path can be identified by both DskName and iLU.

¢

Make sure that all the paths are online.
Make sure that PathStatus is Online. If a path is not online, Reduced

will be displayed.

¢

Make sure that for each path the combination of the CHA port

(ChaPort), through which multiple paths are accessing the same LU,

and the HBA port (the host port number and bus number displayed in

the PathName column) is different.
The digits displayed on the left of PathName indicate a host port

number. The numbers displayed between the period to the right of the

host port number and the next period indicate a bus number.

¢

Make sure that there are different host port numbers and bus

numbers for each physical HBA port.
