setting the default path to a SAN

Hi all,

I have a pair of V440's running Solaris 10 connected to a Hitachi Thunder 9500
storage array through dual FC cards (qlogic). The Hitachi works in a way
that all data should go through one channel (card) and the second should only
be used as a failover. At the moment when the Suns boot up, they are taking
the second channel which is then interfering with other machines that are
also connected to the SAN.

Is there any way I can control the default path the Suns should take to the
SAN - essentially making them use one particular card as the primary and the
other only for failover? Switching the connections on the FC cards is of
course an option, but I would like a cleaner way to do it. Despite searching
docs and the net, I have found nothing.

regards
Markus.
