When you configure your hosts to support multipathing, remember the multipathing configuration maximums.
Object | Maximum | Description |
---|---|---|
Volume (HDisk) | 512 | The maximum number of volumes that the system can support for a host running an IBM i operating system (per host object). |
Paths per volume | 8 | The maximum number of paths to each volume. The suggested number of paths is 4.1 |
Note: 1 Subsystem device driver path-control module (SDDPCM) for AIX supports
16 paths per volume, but the system supports a maximum of 8 paths
in order to provide a reasonable path-failover time.
