You got two paths to this disk, ie. 1 and 2. Which means the MPxIO was not enabled. You can partition it by select disk 2 (the default path) and label it, and select "P" to partition it.

To enable MPxIO, edit /kernel/drv/fp.conf file and have below entry uncommented.
mpxio-disable="no";
Then, reboot and check it with "format" command.

I have two identical servers the one has shown the 4TB ext eva storage if I type format but on the other server I cannot see it, I can only see the local disk, how can I trouble shoot that since I have checked the zones on fiber switches are ok and the presentation is shown in ho command view eva software

Have you got some form of clustering/shared filesystem in use here?
Sharing a LUN between servers without will undoubtably cause corruption!

nop I suppose when I shutdown the server which is shown and reboot the other the LUN will be shown there right? no I did not form any clustering......would you suggest me and give me some hints??
thanks

Well the most obvious is to mount the LUN on one server and use NFS to share it out to your other servers. But beware this means a serious load on your network, so plan that in as well
