SnapDrive on HPUX fails

brendan — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 07:22:37 GMT

I’m trying to get snapdrive working a HPUX 11.31 Itanium. I using running SnapDrive 4.1.1 and fcp host utilities 4.3. I have other luns on this host to the same filer not though SnapDrive working working fine. I am using ALUA as the multipathing and I did enable it ALUA on the igroup.

I also sent the multipathing in the SnapDrive.conf as PVLINKS is this correct?

uxwpeng8:/opt/NetApp/snapdrive# snapdrive storage create -lun 54.18.108.6:/vol/oradb1/test -lunsize 10m

Add the filer systemname to the /etc/hosts file, i believe the sanlun returns the system name and SDU is not able to map the IP with the system name.

Thanks
