After running cfmgr, the following command can be used to validate LUN connectivity and MPIO control:
# lsdev -Cc disk
hdisk0 Available 00-08-00 SAS Disk Drive
hdisk1 Available 00-08-00 SAS Disk Drive
hdisk2 Available 03-00-01 PURE MPIO Drive (Fibre)
root@hclaix:/# lspath -l hdisk2 -F "status:name:path_id:parent:connection"
Enabled:hdisk2:0:fscsi0:21000024ff391bbf,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:1:fscsi0:21000024ff3855bd,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:2:fscsi1:21000024ff385093,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:3:fscsi1:21000024ff385009,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:4:fscsi2:21000024ff391bbe,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:5:fscsi2:21000024ff3855bc,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:6:fscsi3:21000024ff385092,1000000000000
Enabled:hdisk2:7:fscsi3:21000024ff385008,1000000000000
The command output from the above displays the following:
- 8 logical paths for hdisk2 (this AIX system has 4 dual-port HBAs).
- The connection is the array target port wwpn and host LUN ID.
- Example: 21000024ff391bbf,1000000000000 (host LUN ID = 1 as set in GUI/CLI)
Run the following command to check disk attributes set by the Pure ODM definition (the below is an example only):
# lsattr -El hdisk2

PR_key_value none Reserve Key True+

* NOTE: The 256 queue depth setting in the ODM should be treated as a possible starting point, and may need to be adjusted based on host environment variables.
