Multipath Subsystem
Device Driver User’s
Guide
This publication describes how to use the IBM Subsystem Device Driver
(SDD) on open-systems hosts to enhance performance and availability on
the DS8000. SDD creates redundant paths for shared logical unit
numbers. SDD permits applications to run without interruption when path
errors occur. It balances the workload across paths, and it transparently
integrates with applications.
