Hello,
what do think of suppressing the get_evpd_wwid() function ?
1. I have one bug report from Andy, describing an endless loop with an
aacraid device.
2. the resulting uid is not identical to scsi_id output : missing the
type prefix.
Is it worth fixing this beast ?
Nope. Trash it.
IMHO it's better to have central tools (ie scsi_id) and let those handle
things correctly rather than to rely on our own, most likely imperfect,
fallback.
scsi_id has a wider scope, better testing, and another maintainer.
Less work for us, and fixing bugs in that ends up help a lot more
applications than just multipath-tools.
Cheers,
Hannes
