Bug Description

The 3PAR FC driver uses all available FC ports on a host when an instance is attached to a volume and only one FC path is available for that host.

It would be better if the 3PAR FC driver only used a single NSP on the host when only one FC path exists. This will reduce excessive usage of FC ports on the 3PAR.

    Fixing 3PAR excessive FC port usage

    Updating the 3PAR FC driver so that it can detect if there is
    only a single FC path available. When a single FC path is
    detected only a single VLUN will be created instead of one for
    every available NSP on the host. This will prevent a host
    from using extra FC ports that are not needed. If multiple
    FC paths are available all the ports will still be used.
