Gertjan,
Under LSI 9200-8E, by default, it enable MPxIO.
With MPxIO enabled , the device will be like that based on WWN of the disk

Subject: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Weird device naming with new HBA
Hi,
I just installed a new LSI 9200-8E SAS HBA which controls an IBM EXP2524
enclosure. Formerly an IBM M5025 RAID-controller did this. With the
M5025 controller (also LSI) I got the normal device names in Solaris,
like c2t0d0 up to c2t23d0.
With the new controller, device names are ridiculous:
c5t5000C5002C21BAF9d0
c5t5000C5002C21C3C9d0
c5t5000C5002C21D0DDd0
c5t5000C5002C21D98Dd0
and so forth, all 24 disks.
Does anyone know what causes this? I haven't looked into it too much
yet, will do tomorrow.
Regards,
Gertjan Oude Lohuis
