Loosing connection to both paths(SPA/SPB)

HP-UX 11.11
EMC powermt for PowerPath (c) Version 3.0.3
Fail over mode=1 at Clariion

As you can see only single HBA/Basisfailover

Here is the error .As per the logs LUN is NOT switching(may be switching but not able to use the other path) between SPs rather loosing the connection to both SPs at the same time

I have another LUN coming from same array/HBA/VG which is not reporting any error. Is there any LUN level property/settings which related to failover/pathswitcing?

As you can see there is license for Clarrion (single HBA)
