This is described in book shipped with your fscsiX adapter.

Be so kind and post output of "oslevel -r", name and model of your server, and name and model of problem adapter.

Did you install TotalStorage MultiPath from CD???
Configured via diag utility it shows after as single adaptor.


Maybe more recent driver than on CD:

No it didnt use the alternate path
I tried dropping the adapters and it
still comes back using just one fscsi1

same problem on another box
It turned out to be on the shark
It works over one of multiple paths at any given moment.
