The sppath Command
The sppath command is run automatically at boot after SVA Path
is installed. sppath’s main function is to create the configuration
file that identifies devices to be put under SVA Path’s control. Its
command options are used to display or modify this device set.
sppath examines disk devices attached to the system to
determine whether any physical devices are accessible via
redundant paths and whether those devices should be put under the
control of the SVA Path driver. Qualifying devices are written to
the /etc/
sppath.conf file. This file should not normally be
modified directly by the user.
To qualify, devices must have appropriate inquiry data.
The vendor ID must match one of:
•STK
•IBM
•RSBA
The product ID must match one of:
• 9200
• 9393
• 9500
sppath’s command options are used to display or modify this
device set.
