Solaris SAN Configuration and Multipathing Guide

ProcedureTo Get the Multipathing Support Properties

The multipathing support properties are associated with Multipath Management API plug-in properties.

  1. List the multipathing support by typing the mpathadm list mpath-support command.


    # mpathadm list mpath-support
    mpath-support: libmpscsi_vhci.so

    (Only one mpath support name result is shown in the preceding output list example.)

  2. Choose the mpath support name from the output list.

  3. List the multipathing support properties for a specified mpath support name by typing the mpathadm show mpath-support mpath-support-name command.


    # mpathadm show mpath-support libmpscsi_vhci.so
    mpath-support: libmpscsi_vhci.so
