Please help me!

Are you talking about networking or storage ?

hi, about storage

Moved: your Solaris question has been moved to the Solaris forum, so it may get the exposure it deserves.

If its nfs then configure your network interfaces with ipmp as usual with one in standby, if you're using FC, sorry I haven't needed to, try the Sun doco:

hmm. lots of interaction here, but no information yet. Can you give some more detail on what you have done so far, what kind of multipathing, what hardware and OS release and patches, what you have done to your config files, etc. It's much easier to answer questions when they are very specific with details. Just for example, SAS, FC, and iSCSI are all going to be somewhat different in how their multipathing is set up.
