mapMultipathSet
The
mapMutipathSet
command configures a device for a given mode of operation.Multiple path target
support is available for Fibre Channel targets only. Three modes are possible.
The first mode is called "single path," which is the default. In this mode, targets are mapped only once,
regardless of how many physical paths there are to the device.
The second mode is called "manual multi-path" (MMP). In this mode the SNC will map a single Fibre
Channel attached device through both Fibre Channels on an SNC 4000 series. This feature requires
specialized high availability host software. It is a separately licensed feature.
The third mode is called "automatic multi-path" (AMP). In this mode the SNC maps multiple Fibre Channel
paths to a target device and automatically switches the I/O to a good link when link failures occur. This
feature can be used to create redundancy on all Fibre Channel links between the SNC and the target
including links not directly connected to the SNC (i.e., target to switch). AMP does not require specialized
host software. It is a separately licensed feature.

In order to change the mapping mode associated with a given device, the device must first be removed from
the device map using
mapRemoveDevice [devId]
.
For more information about this command and an example of its use, refer to the
mapRemoveDevice [devId]
on page 96.
This command takes a single parameter which is the device ID (DevId) of the device to be removed from
the map. Device ID can be determined by finding the device in the list generated by
mapShowDevs
.
For more information about this command and an example of its use, refer to the
mapShowDevs
on page
97.

mapMultipathShow
.
mapMultipathShow
The
mapMultipathShow
command displays the current setting for mapping new targets.
SNC > mapMultipathShow

CAUTION
After setting up the mapping mode, the device must be mapped by
using the
fcRescan
command. For more information, see the
fcRescan [port]
command.
