Does SDS handle > the multiple paths to the A5000? No. SDS doesn't do that itself. Multipathing is handled by the sun fiber card drivers itself and MPxIO at a layer under SDS. If needed, SDS was present only on the "server media kit" which came with a server license of 2.6. The "desktop" or "workstation" kit which came with the desktop license does not have SDS. -- Darren Dunham ddunham@taos.com Senior Technical Consultant TAOS http://www.taos.com/ Got some Dr Pepper?
