urgent - Installation/configuration of mpxio on solaris 9

kiran aix · 03-09-2015, 03:03 AM

Hello Experts,

We need to install/configure MPxIO on a Solaris 9 server.

specifically one that already has the IBM SDD driver / SVC storage ... how to change over from using SDD driver/multipathing to using Solaris native MPxIO.

and also how to switch from using another type of multipathing on Solaris (like SDD) to MPxIO 10:01 AM
without losing the existing data.

Please treat this as urgent.

Thanks,
Kiran

You need a virtual image of a Solaris 9 server with a preconfigured proprietary adapter driver installed.

You should probably contact Oracle,they sell those on their web site. It would be illegal to just pass them out for free since Oracle owns the technology.
The rest of it you can resolve by spending a few hundred hours in the documentation library. At least the documentation is free.

Putting urgent in the subject line will not improve the chances of your thread getting more attention, the opposite might happen. People here are volunteers and they might be get annoyed by seeing the word urgent as they are assisting / helping without any obligation.
