Note the following points:

The LUN numbers are assigned as the LUNs are discovered by the system. These LUN numbers are

unique across the HP SFS system.

The

Preferred Controller

field can contain a dash (–),

A

, or

B

. The dash indicates that no

preferred controller has been specified for the LUN.

Information about the paths between the servers and the LUN is shown as follows:

Preferred

— this field shows the preferred path. If no preferred path and no preferred

controller are specified, the value is show as

none

. Other values can indicate that a preferred

controller or a path has been set. For example:

(to A)

This value indicates that although no preferred path is set, controller

A

has

been specified as the preferred controller. In this case, the software will

pick a path that optimizes access to controller

A

.

fc-0/B2

The path is set to

fc-0/B2

(that is, HBA

0

, controller

B

, port

2

). This

specified path overrides any preferred controller setting.

Current

— this field shows the current path being used for the LUN. This data is accurate at

boot time and each time the

hpls_scan_luns

command runs. However, the value in this field

is not updated if there are failures in the Fibre Channel fabric.

Available

— this field shows all of the possible paths to the LUN. Where there are two HBAs

and two redundant switch fabrics, four paths should be shown. In this example, only two paths

are shown, and this indicates that there is a problem; the

syscheck

utility will report the

problem.

The following example shows the output from the

show lun lun_number

command in a system where

SFS20 storage is used:
