    I would like to have uniform device name for a LUN under AIX MPIO on AIX 6.1. How to achieve this?

    For example, if i assign a LUN to two AIX servers, on one AIX server it is displayed as hdisk1 and on another AIX server it is displaying as hdisk3. I want on both AIX servers the LUN should be displayed as hdisk100, permanently. How to achieve this?

    Thanks in advance.
