[OmniOS-discuss] multipathing with compellent

I just noticed that we do have access to the mpathadm command by 
installing the "pkg:/storage/mpathadm at 0.5.11-0.151002" package. After 
installing I don't see any paths with "mpathadm list LU" which is what 
im used to on solaris 10 (i know I should be comparing to solaris 11, 
just havn't played with it much). I wonder if there are any other bits 
that I need to install or other configuration tweaks to get this going.

Thanks in advance for any pointers,
Majeed
