Managing Secure Path
58 Secure Path v3.0C for Linux and Linux Workgroup Edition Installation and Reference Guide
Secure Path Manager overview
The Secure Path Manager (spmgr) utility lets you monitor and manage devices,
storage systems, and paths to units that are in the Secure Path configuration. It
also lets you modify the configuration to repair, replace, or reconfigure. The
spmgr utility relies on spagent to handle calls to the driver (swsp).
Adding or deleting LUNs
Secure Path v3.0C for Linux does not support adding and deleting LUNs
dynamically. However, you can manually add and delete LUNs by performing the
following steps:
1. Shut down your server.
2. Add or delete LUNs from your controller. Refer to your storage system
documentation for more information on adding or deleting LUNs from your
controllers.
3. Boot your server.
Note: When you remove LUNs that will not be returned from Secure Path control, you
should also remove them from the Persistence database. Refer to “Fibre Channel
Device Software” on page 113 for more information on the Persistence database.
