26 SVA Path User’s Guide
Assigning a New
Primary Path
The syntax for changing an SVA LUN’s primary data path is
setsp -l<x> -p<n>
where <x> is the spd number (see above) and <n> is the number
of the new path. The path number can be obtained by simply
counting down
setsp’s list of physical paths (in the Path/disk
column), starting from zero.
The command to change the primary path shown in Figure 3-1, on
page 23, for the SVA device with the
spd ID of 0 from its default
path through controller 7 to the path through controller 8, then,
would be:
# setsp -l0 -p1
If you run a setsp command with the verbose option (-v), the
configuration change will be displayed on screen (below)

Turning the
Exclusion Setting
Off and On
The syntax for changing the exclusion setting for a device is
setsp -l<x> -e{0|1}
where <x> is the spd number and the -e option takes one of two
arguments:
• -e0 turns exclusion off (makes the device visible to the host);
• -e1 turns exclusion on (excludes the device).
In a single-host configuration all devices should be visible to the
host. Devices can be included (or unexcluded) by using the
command.
# setsp -l all -e0
# setsp -v -l0 -p1
