Can anybody tell me if my multipath o/p is fine?

I have a active/active setup and when I unplug the FC SAN cable on one of the ports of my HBA my host is being un responsive and need to reboot it.

When I do 

multipath -ll

I can see:

[root@cvprd2 etc]# multipath -ll

But when I do "multipath -v2" i donot see anything..


[root@cvprd2 etc]# multipath -v2
[root@cvprd2 etc]#

My multipath.conf is as below:

[root@cvprd1 etc]# more multipath.conf 
# This is a basic configuration file with some examples, for device mapper
# multipath.
# For a complete list of the default configuration values, see
# /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7/multipath.conf.defaults
# For a list of configuration options with descriptions, see
# /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7/multipath.conf.annotated


# Blacklist all devices by default. Remove this to enable multipathing
# on the default devices. 
blacklist {
        devnode "^sda"
}

## Use user friendly names, instead of using WWIDs as names.
defaults {
user_friendly_names yes
polling_interval 5
no_path_retry 3
failover immediate
path_grouping_policy multibus
rr_weight priorities

}
devices {
        device {
                vendor                  "HITACHI"
                product                 "OPEN-V"
                path_grouping_policy    multibus
                path_checker            readsector0
                getuid_callout          "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -p0x80 -s /block/%n"
        }
}

Upgrding the kernel to 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5xen brought back /dev/dm-* and now multipath -ll has the ouput.

I am curious about what has caused the lost of /dev/dm* in my previous kernel.

Any ideas?

Paras.
