rebooted with the primary path remaining as above. On booting from the FC disk as LDEV-1, follow the usual
procedure in SYSGEN to modify the configuration for LDEV-1. During this time, the hardware path to be
used to modify LDEV-1 should be the shorter path format and not the longer one. While setting up the
SYSGEN configuration for the above disk as LDEV-1, use 0/8/0/0.95.5 as the hardware path.
