    How Preferred Paths work The basic idea of multip athing is fairly simple. Access a disk on one of two paths. If the path fails, move I/O activity to the other path. We build on that basis by adding m ore factors into the configuration and seeing what effect they have. A path is defined as an end- to-end connection through a SAN, ignoring any inter ...

    and set up preferences so that the re maining paths to the sam e controller are preferred over path s to the altern ate controller. Example 1) Suppose we have two HBAs, a switch, and two RAID controllers. A total of four cables, and four paths to each LUN (2 HBAs x 2 RAID controllers). We use the RAID controller preference to s elect which controll ...
