	❑ View the LUNs available to the server using the following PowerPath
	command:
	powermt display dev=all class=clariion
	❑ Choose one available LUN to receive I/O for the test.
	❑ View the paths to the chosen LUN using the following PowerPath
	command:
	powermt display dev=x every=2
	where x is a pseudo device that represents the chosen LUN.
	❑ Start I/O to the LUN.
	❑ Identify the HBA sending I/O to the LUN by viewing the output of the
	powermt display dev=x every=2 command, and disconnect the cable to
	that HBA.
	❑ View the output of the powermt display dev=x every=2 command, and
	verify that
	• The state of the uncabled paths becomes “dead.”
	• I/O continues to the remaining path(s) to the LUN, indicating that the
	failover path was successful, and PowerPath is working properly.
	❑ Reconnect the cable that you disconnected from the HBA.
	❑ If you caused any LUNs to trespass, restore the LUNs to their original SP
	with the following PowerPath command:
	powermt restore

You are now ready to set up any optional software, such as SnapView or MirrorView, on the storage system.
