Can you tell us what version of Solaris and what version of PowerPath you are using?

Hi Conor,

we are using Solaris10 & Powerpath version 4.5.0_b169

and the Flare OS Firmware version is : 3.26.20.5.019

Can you give us the console output from where you are running the commands, I have never seen the command you mentioned.

To create emcpower devices on Solaris you should only have to run the following commands (can you give us the output from the console as you run each command...

powercf -q

powermt config

powermt save

powermt display dev=all

Conor

Hi Conor,

emcpower0s2  auto            -            -            error

instead we should get the below output i already have from another site:

vxdisk list
DEVICE       TYPE            DISK         GROUP        STATUS
c0t0d0s2     auto:sliced     rootdisk     osdg         online
c0t1d0s2     auto:sliced     rootmirror   osdg         online
emcpower0s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower1s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower2s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower3s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower4s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower5s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower6s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower7s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower8s2  auto            -            -            error
emcpower9s2  auto            -            -            error

So as you can notice that only emcpower0s2 is showing the others are not there this is the major issue why i cannot continue by creating the volumes on the DA and im getting this error:

Not enough disks of 11 GB available on the system to continue...exiting!
