An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for automatically verifying access to a multipathed target at boot time. The apparatus is provided with a logic unit containing a plurality of modules configured to functionally execute the necessary steps of identifying a plurality of paths to a target device, automatically selecting one of the plurality of paths to the target device, and verifying access on at least one path to the target device. Beneficially, the disclosed embodiments of the apparatus, system, and method reduce false errors during the boot cycle, improve reliability of the multipathed network, simplify traffic load balancing, and provide for topology mapping for troubleshooting and network metrics. The disclosed embodiments provide a means for verifying multipathed targets automatically, without requiring user assistance, intervention, or interaction.
