    Environment:

    HP-UX 11i servers
    Brocade SAN switches
    VA7410 disk arrays
    SureStore tape libraries

    When changes are made to the ports on the SAN switches that route to the
    disk or tape devices, it changes the hardware and device paths to them in
    the OS. Whenever this happens, it has been a laborious process to recover
    everything. Has anyone found an easy way to handle this? Does anyone have
    scripts that ease the pain when the paths change?
