No, it has nothing to do with mpt.conf (which is a different
configuration file for a different driver altogether). The reason is
that scsi_vhci contains a whitelist of devices and associated failover
modules (i.e. methods for implementing multipathing). If your device
isn't whitelisted, then scsi_vhci doesn't know which failover module to
use and instead, as a failsafe, decides to do nothing. You can find more
info on the scsi_vhci man page:
