This check monitors the state of Multipath groups (LUNs) on HP-UX. Each path can be in the state ACTIVE, STANDBY, FAILED or UNOPEN. The check parameter specifies the number of pathes expected in the various states (usually active and standby). The check triggers critical, if at least one path is FAILED. It triggers a warning if the number of paths in the various states has changed (e.g. if a path has completely vanished or switched from active to standby).
