The system reboots after successful installation of Secure Path 3.0F SP4 for HP-UX for Active-Passive
disk arrays.

The script checks the server for required drivers and patches before installing Secure Path. When the
installation is complete, Secure Path claims the devices configured on the Active-Passive disk arrays.
The install script builds the kernel and reboots the server after installation. See Installing Secure Path
on a SAN boot device for detailed information about installation on an EVA boot disk.
NOTE:
At least 100 MB of free disk space is required in the /tmp file system.
After a successful installation and subsequent reboot, the following occurs:
• An ioscan discloses new disk instances for each Active-Passive LUN configured on the server.
• Secure Path claims all units that have been presented to the host from the array and numbers them
sequentially, starting with target 0, LUN 0.
• Secure Path is enabled with the following default values:
• Auto-Restore-off
• Load Balancing-off
• Path Verification-on
• Verification Period–30 seconds
• Paths preferred-none
• Console event logging of critical messages
• Syslog event logging of critical and warning messages
• Mail event logging of critical, warning, and informational messages enabled to send to the
root account
Use spmgr to customize your configuration. See spmgr commands for more information on the
spmgr utility.
Secure Path installs the following utilities:
• The Secure Path agent (/sbin/spagent) provides an interface for Secure Path applications to
communicate with the Secure Path drivers. The spagent script starts after Secure Path installation
and at system boot (for subsequent reboots) and must run for spmgr to operate. The spinit
script (/sbin/init.d/spinit) starts and stops the spagent.
• The Secure Path management utility (/sbin/spmgr) displays device information, actively manages
paths to each device, and sets driver options such as load balancing, path verification, and auto-
restore. See spmgr commands for more information.
