SYNOPSIS

#include <mpapi.h>

MP_STATUS MP_EnablePath(MP_OID oid);

PARAMETERS

oid
The object ID of the path.

DESCRIPTION

The MP_EnablePath() function enables a path. This API might cause
failover in a logical unit with asymmetric access.


This API sets the field disabled of structure
MP_PATH_LOGICAL_UNIT_PROPERTIES to false.

RETURN VALUES

likely to happen if an uninitialized object ID is passed to the
API.


MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

The oid has a type subfield other than MP_OBJECT_TYPE_PATH_LU.


MP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

The oid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.


MP_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED

The API is not supported.


MP_STATUS_TRY_AGAIN

The path cannot be enabled at this time.
