2 vios hang when storage DS5020 changes logical drive not on preferred path

    I have a problem and I need ideas to resolve. That is the issue:

    I have this configurations:

    a) 1 power 7 p750 rack server with 1 vios and 1 lpar connected to storage DS5020.
    b) 1 power 7 p702 blade server with 1 vios and 1 lpar connected to storage DS5020.
    c) 1 power 5 p550 rack server with 1 vios and 1 lpar connected to storage DS5020.

    This 3 servers (power7 rack, power 7 blade, power5 rack) are connected to the same storage IBM DS5020.
    Reviewing logs at October 12:

    The storage DS5020 has this message: Logical drive not on preferred path. 14 logical drives was moved to the second path.

    I have errors in 3 VIOS's servers.

    In October 12 at 1:57 am, I lost connection to the virtual hdisks and the lpar hangs located in the power 7 p750 rack server.

    In October 12 at 2:06 am I lost connection to the virtual hdisks and the lpar hangs located in the power 5 p550 rack server.

    In October 12 at 1:59 am I lost connection to the virtual disks and the lpar supports the change in the path located in the power 7 p702 BLADE server. Only this lpar survive and continues working.

    The workaround was reboot lpars and VIOS.

    In October 15 at 1:59 am, lpar lost connection to the virtual hdisks and the lpar hangs located in the power 7 p750 rack server.

    In October 15 at 2:08 am, lpar lost connection to the virtual hdisks and the lpar hangs located in the power 5 p550 rack server.
    The workaround was reboot lpars and VIOS.

    Please any ideas?

    Have you checked that you have applied the SCSI "no reserve" policy consistently throughout?

    On AIX: chdev -l hdiskn -a reserve_policy=no_reserve

    On VIOS: chdev -dev hdiskn -attr reserve_policy=no_reserve

    If the disks are active you might need to do a reboot to activate this feature. You can't change the reservation policy after a disk has become active, since the reservation is done when the disk becomes active.

    Another thing to check is that your SAN zoning is implemented properly throughout the SAN.
