I have enabled mpxio on my SPARC system. HDS storage. This has worked
perfectly on all of my systems except one, or rather partially. Format
shows:

Specify disk (enter its number): ^D

And those HDS disks are multipathed, as in there are 3 separate LUN's
assigned with multiple paths. So the format output looks good, the /
dev/dsk/* device nodes show multipathed devices. But stmsboot -L
doesn't show the devices as being multipathed. cfgadm looks healthy.
Why wouldn't stmsboot show those devices at all?

stmsboot -L
non-STMS device name STMS device name

/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c4t500000E014390FF0d0

Those are the internal disks.

Thanks to those he help me see the light.
