Example:
vxdmpadm getdmpnode output shows 1 path is enabled and other path is disabled
#/usr/sbin/vxdmpadm getdmpnode enclosure=emc_clariion0
NAME STATE ENCLR-TYPE PATHS ENBL DSBL ENCLR-NAME
==============================================================================
c3t5006016010600FEFd58s2 ENABLED EMC_CLARiiON 2 1 1 emc_clariion0 <=================== 1 of the path reported as disabled
c3t5006016010600FEFd59s2 ENABLED EMC_CLARiiON 2 1 1 emc_clariion0 <=================== 1 of the path reported as disabled
Whereas vxdisk list output shows both paths are in enabled state
