If your system is configured to use Dynamic Multipathing (DMP), you can also use
vxdctl to:
◆ reconfigure the DMP database to include disk devices newly attached to, or removed
from the system
◆ create DMP device nodes in the directories /dev/vx/dmp and /dev/vx/rdmp
◆ update the DMP database with changes in path type for active/passive disk arrays.
Use the utilities provided by the disk-array vendor to change the path type between
primary and secondary
For more information about how to use vxdctl, refer to the vxdctl(1M) manual page.
