AIX lspath Missing path

Reviewing disk paths, I found some paths showing as Missing and some enabled on the same fscsi

root@aix:/ # lspath -l hdisk31
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi0
Missing hdisk31 fscsi0
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi0
Missing hdisk31 fscsi0
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi2
Missing hdisk31 fscsi2
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi2
Missing hdisk31 fscsi2

To correct this situation we will remove the path and recognize again. Check if there is a disk with only one path

root@aix:/ # lspath

Remove one path, run cfgmgr. Remove the other one and run cfgmgr

root@aix:/ # rmpath -p fscsi2 -d
root@aix:/ # cfgmgr
root@aix:/ # rmpath -p fscsi0 -d
root@aix:/ # cfgmgr

It should display like this

root@aix:/ # lspath -l hdisk31
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi0
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi0
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi2
Enabled hdisk31 fscsi2
