Powerpath and AIX

INSTALLATION:
Prereq Files:
EMCpower.base 3.0.0.0
EMCpower.multi_path_clariio 3.0.0.0
EMCpower.multi_path 3.0.0.0
EMCpower.consistency_grp 3.0.0.0

Register PowerPath on the host: emcpreg -install (Enter the 12-character license key)

Validate your registration number using :powermt check_registration

To initialize devices at the command line :powermt config

Commands:

# emc_cfgmgr
# powermt display dev=all
# powermt config
# powermt display
# powermt remove hba=hba#
# powermt restore
# powermt check

How to uninstall -

Stop all applications/processes that access powerpath hdiskpower device.
Varyoff volumegroups that contains hdiskpower device (or) remove hdiskpower devices from the volumegroups
Uninstall powerpath filesets using or use SMIT
# installp –u EMCpower

To remove powerpath from the system entirely, remove the file “/etc/emcp_registration”
