Stephane,
The only way to get rid of the "stale" path is to use "hwmgr" to
delete the device and then scan it back in using "hwmgr -scan scsi". This
will bring it back as a different dsk<name> but then you can use the "dsfmgr
-m <new-name> <old-name>" to rename it back to dsk12. The drive(s) hat you
are doing this to cannot be in use or mounted while you do this.
Good luck,
Bob

Subject: PATH STATE: stale
Hi everybody
My Configuration: TruCluster 5.1A with 2 KGPSA-CA (F/W 3.82a1) on each node.
Storage: Hitachi 9960 (HDS).
I defined 11 HDS-devices for my TruCluster. I have a stale path state (see
below) with only two devices. All other devices have two valid paths.
I'm more or less sure that the problem could be solved with a reboot but I
would like to know if it's not possible to solve this problem without
reboot.
In advance thanks.
Best regards,
Stephane
