This section describes how to perform fabric device configuration steps on a system that has the multipathing features enabled.
The devices attached to the fabric-connected host port are not configured by default and so are not available to the system. Use the cfgadm configure and cfgadm unconfigure commands to manage device node creation for fabric devices. For more information, see cfgadm_fp(1M). The procedures in this section illustrate steps to detect fabric devices that are visible on a system and to configure them as multipathing devices to make them available to the system.
The device information that you supply, and that is displayed by the cfgadm command, depends on your system configuration.
