Dear list, we have a relatively new Sun Storage 7310, where we connect CentOS 5.5 Servers (IBM LS21/LS41 Blades) via Brocade Switches, 4GBit FC. The Blades boot from SAN via qla2xxx, and have no harddisks at all. We want them to use multipathing from the very beginning, so /boot and / are already seen by multipathd. Problem is, that the Sun 7310 has two storage heads which run in

Hello, I hope to be in the right list. my question is the following. I can''t seem to get multipathing configure on XCP 1.6. In XenCenter I was able to enable "Multipath" however, in the LUN under general tab I see " multipath 1 of 1 active", the the CLI I do the following command xe --m node session it list only one session. Can someone help me please? Thanks in

...only : No Sectors : 41941688 # After, I have configured the device-mapper multipath by commenting the "blacklist" section in /etc/multipath.conf and adding this "defaults" section: defaults { user_friendly_names yes polling_interval 5 #path_grouping_policy failover path_grouping_policy multibus rr_min_io 1 failback immediate #failback manual no_path_retry fail #no_path_retry queue } Now I have the mpath device configured correctly (IMHO): # multipath -ll mpath0 (gnbd) dm-2 GNBD,GNBD [si...

Are folks in the Centos community succesfully using device-mapper-multipath? I am looking to deploy it for error handling on our iSCSI setup but there seems to be little traffic about this package on the Centos forums, as far as I can tell, and there seems to be a number of small issues based on my reading the dm-multipath developer lists and related resources. -geoff Geoff Galitz Blankenheim
