Configuring Individual Device Paths
Perform the following steps to set device path visibility to the operating system:
NOTE: There must be one visible path for the operating system to see the device.
1. From the Fibre Channel Configuration dialog box, right-click in the cell in the
Adapter n column.
2. From the pop-up menu, select one of the available options:
❑ Select Set Visible to set this path as visible by the operating system during
the boot process.
❑ Select Set Unconfigured to set this path as not visible by the operating
system.
3. From the pop-up menu, select one of the available options:
❑ Select Set Visible to set this path as visible by the operating system during
the boot process.
❑ Select Set Hidden to set this path as not visible by the operating system
during the boot process but used in failover conditions.
❑ Select Set Unconfigured to set this path as not visible by the operating
system nor used in failover conditions.
4. If setting the path has caused the LUNs associated with this device to have an
invalid configuration, the modify LUN configuration message displays. When
the problem occurs, it usually results from changing a device to or from the
unconfigured state. You need to modify the LUN configuration for this device
before the configuration can be saved or applied. Click OK.
