Recovering after a failure
When a path fails, it is no longer used by Auto Path. After the path is
returned to normal, Auto Path automatically begins using the path with the
designated load balancing policy. No user action is necessary.
If there is no load balancing policy set for a failed path and the path was not
set as the preferred path, no user action is necessary.
If there is no load balancing policy set for a failed path and the failed path
was the designated preferred path, you must reset the recovered path as the
preferred path using the Device Settings window. See “Setting the preferred
path” (page 44).
