thanks Hari. even i got the same input from google as well.  as i didn't get
any response  i have done some testing on my machines. here are my findings.

1. The process doesn't use both the disks (basically reads only)
simultaneously when pathtype is not specified (active / active position)

(verified using vxdmp stat)

2. i tried to make the both the disks as primary after than it started using
both the disks...

so which one is working one. active/active or primary/primary.?

If the pathtype is not specified then its an Active/Active LUN. If the
pathtype is specified then its an Active/Passive or Asymmetric Active/Active
[ALUA] LUN. All primary paths would be shown with pathtype as 'primary' and
same is the case with 'secondary' paths.



With regards

Hari
