SCSI block device name/multipath question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



hi,

i have a host with a LSI SAS 3108 RAID controller in JBOD mode with 4 SSD SATA disks. i installed oVirt node (= CentOS 7) on the first two disks configured as SW RAID 1 (in the oVirt node/CentOS installer). when i look at the device names in the running OS i get

# lsscsi --scsi_id -g
[0:0:0:0]    disk    ATA      SAMSUNG MZ7LM480 204Q  /dev/sda   -  /dev/sg0
[0:0:1:0]    disk    ATA      SAMSUNG MZ7LM480 204Q  /dev/sdb   -  /dev/sg1
[0:0:2:0] disk ATA SAMSUNG MZ7LM480 204Q /dev/sdc SAMSUNG_MZ7LM480HMHQ-00005_S2UJNX0J102216 /dev/sg2 [0:0:3:0] disk ATA SAMSUNG MZ7LM480 204Q /dev/sdd SAMSUNG_MZ7LM480HMHQ-00005_S2UJNX0J102214 /dev/sg3

Okt 12:07 /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-mpath-SAMSUNG_MZ7LM480HMHQ-00005_S2UJNX0J102216 -> ../../dm-5

disks 2:0 + 3:0 are configured as multipath devices (and subsequently set up by device mapper), disks 0:0 + 1:0 are not. SAMSUNG_MZ7LM480HMHQ-00005_S2UJNX0J102216 and SAMSUNG_MZ7LM480HMHQ-00005_S2UJNX0J102214 are listed in /etc/multipath/wwids (and get re-listed after reboot when i manually remove them).

why are two of the four local disks configured as multipath devices? As far as i understood documentation this shouldn't happen

thx 4 help
