For these servers, you can use different types of multipathing software, including:
Oracle Solaris IP Network Multipathing software (IPMP), which provides multipathing and load-balancing capabilities for IP network interfaces. For instructions on configuring and administering Oracle Solaris IP Network Multipathing, refer to Administering TCP/IP Networks, IPMP, and IP Tunnels in Oracle Solaris 11.3.
Oracle Solaris Datalink Multipathing aggregations (DLMP), also referred to as trunking, which enables you to configure several interfaces on a system as a single, logical unit to increase throughput of network traffic. For instructions on configuring and administering Oracle Solaris Datalink Multipathing, refer to Managing Network Datalinks in Oracle Solaris 11.3.
Oracle Solaris I/O Multipathing (MPxIO), which enables you to configure the multipathing features for FC devices to control all supported FC HBAs. This feature was formerly known as StorageTek Traffic Manager. For instructions on configuring and administering the Oracle Solaris I/O Multipathing features in Oracle Solaris 11.3, refer to Managing SAN Devices and Multipathing in Oracle Solaris 11.3. For Oracle Solaris 10, refer to the Oracle Solaris SAN Configuration and Multipathing Guide in Oracle Solaris 10 documentation.
Oracle VM Server for SPARC Virtual Disk Multipathing (mpgroups), which enables you to configure a virtual disk on a guest domain to access its back-end storage by more than one path. For instructions on configuring and administering Oracle VM Server for SPARC Virtual Disk Multipathing, refer to the Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.5 Administration Guide.
