What happens and how to recover
I/O operations fail along the path through the failed cable. If the
host has two Fibre Channel adapters connected to a dual-controller
module disk array, the array can be accessed through the
operational path if primary and alternate paths have been
configured in LVM. If so, LVM switches automatically and
transparently to the alternate path. The authorized service provider
hot-swaps the failed cable.
