Hi,
I'm trying to configure a new emc cx storage, I have the following:
2 server, each server has a qla2462 dual port hba
each qla2462 is connected to a switch (only one switch)
1 emc cx storage with 4 path connected to the switch
I defined two lun on the storage however I'm able to see only one LUN
multipath -l show the following:
multipath -l
mail (36006016086f01600e46f567adb8cda11)

i could be off in the weeds here, but this output looks wrong. the
host:channel:target:lun numbers listed there suggest your cx is indeed
surfacing luns 0 and 1, but multipath is grouping them under a single
target ID.
Maybe you are right! I added another LUN and this is multipath output
multipath -l

i think emc engineers monitor this list; perhaps they can help.
maybe the problem is scsi_id that report the same output for all block
device,
I have kernel 2.6.16-rc1 on a server and 2.6.13.5 on the other one,
with 2.6.16-rc1

also, look at this if you havent already (there's a section on clariion
cx's), and feel free to add your findings.
