it works and will continue working but it just EMC wont' support it on your platform. No experience with mpxio, sorry. If Veritas is using power devices and not native devices i suspect you will have some work to do to make it work to native solaris devices.
That' fine, I would rather leave it on. So I am safe to assume it will continue to work after we upgrade to Flare 26? I don't care if it's supported at this point because it's been on the server and stable for long time. I can deal with upgrading the version of PP later. I just want to make sure it will work with Flare 26.
Only PowerPath 5.1, 5.2 and 5.2.1 are supported with Solaris 10 Update 6 and Solaris 10 with patch 137137-09 or later . Please see primus case emc201300
I have PP 4.5 installed on it now and it works, is that because I am still at FLARE code 19? If I remove it and use mpxio, will my data be ok. I use veritas volume manager and file system.
Wonderful news, you just made my day! We have a similar situation here and I don't really want to change anything on the server in question if I don't have to. Thank you Dynamox for your wonderful support! - Happyadmin
it will be fine, i have a couple of old solaris boxes running 4.5 connected to CX4 flare 28 ..no issues. Did not want to bother upgrading them as they are being decommissioned soon.
