.SH PARAMETERS
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIlogicalUnitOid\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
The object ID of the multipath logical unit.
.RE

.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIpathOid\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
The object ID of the path logical unit.
.RE
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBMP_SetOverridePath()\fR function is used to manually override the path
for a logical unit. The path is exclusively used to access the logical unit
until cleared. Use \fBMP_CancelOverride\fR to clear the override.
.sp
.LP
This API allows the administrator to disable the dri ver's load balance
algorithm and force all I/O operations to a specific path. The existing path
weight configuration is maintained. If the administrator undoes the override
(by calling \fBMP_CancelOverridePath\fR), the driver starts load balancing
based on the weights of available paths (and target port group access state
for asymmetric devices).
.sp
.LP
If the multipath logical unit is part of a target with asymmetrical access,
executing this command could cause failover.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The \fIlogicalUnitOid\fR or \fIpathOid\fR does not specify any valid object
type. This is most likely to happen if an uninitialized object ID is passed to
the API.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The \fIlogicalUnitOid\fR has a type subfield other than
\fBMP_OBJECT_TYPE_MULTIPATH_LU\fR, or if \fIpathOid\fR has an object type other
than \fBMP_OBJECT_TYPE_PATH_LU\fR.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The \fIlogicalUnitOid\fR, \fIpathOid\fR owner ID, or object sequence number is
invalid.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_SUCCESS\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The operation is successful.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The implementation does not support the API.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBMP_STATUS_PATH_NONOPERATIONAL\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
The driver cannot communicate through selected path
