Saso ,I do not see my new added 4 disks in mpathadm list lu query.

Here is my output,

These disks are from my 1st zfs pool which is now in production:

Is multipath'ing disabled on my system?and after enable multipath'ing will I 
lose my pool?because disk naming will change?
Will zfs import work with new disk naming to get back my zfs pool and data?

regards 

Hafiz.


You should use neither. The underlying disk paths are automatically
managed by the scsi_vhci driver. You need to consult "mpathadm list lu"
and use the device names printed there as your ZFS device nodes, for
example (using the example from
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/820-1931/agkax/index.html):

# mpathadm list lu
    /dev/rdsk/c4t60020F20000035AF4267CCCB0002CEE2d0s2
        Total Path Count: 2
        Operational Path Count: 2
    ...

Here, c4t60020F20000035AF4267CCCB0002CEE2d0 is the correct disk node, so
you should use that. If you are getting "Total Path Count: 1" and twice
the number of nodes in "mpathadm list lu", then scsi_vhci is not
detecting your disks as multi-pathed and you need to tell it to do that.
See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/820-1931/gfpva/index.html on how
to do that. My guess is, however, that this should not be needed, since
you're saying you've got two LSI 9211-8i HBAs, which use the mpt_sas
driver, which is automatically multipath-enabled.

Cheers,
