Subject: RES: Solaris 7 and alterante pathing

Hi,

Here is the summary about my prefious question.
Thanx to Daniel Barrella

     Hello,

     1) Yes, it is.
     2) I would recommend the newest version (AP 2.3)
     3) Yes, it is. You can download it directly fom Sun (www.sun.com)

     By the way, AP does not detect NIC/link failures automatically.
You have to manually switch the interfaces upon a NIC failure, or try
to implement a detection mechanism which triggers the switching program.
     I did not find a good solution for this issue yet. Any suggestion?

Daniel

QUESTION WAS :

Hi,

Sorry to disturb you . I have following question for you.
We have solaris 7 and would like to implement AP ( altnernate pathing )
through
two fibrechannel JNI-cards ( PCI ) .
My question(s) are :

1) Is this possible technicalally on a 250 with JNI cards
2) Which software does I need ( I think it could be AP 2.1 , but I am
not sure
)
3) Is it free with solaris 7 ???? , in solaris 8 I think it is on the
distribution)

Thanx

Pierre Demuynck
