The symlinks are created by a rule in the /etc/udev/udev.rules file similar to the following: KERNEL="dm-[0-9]*", PROGRAM="/sbin/devmap_name %M %m", NAME="%k" SYMLINK="disk/by-name/%c" You will probably want to make sure that you have udev installed and running, and maybe test out that /sbin/devmap_name command to make sure it works (%M it the major number for the dm device and %m is the minor number) Note that there should also be devices in the /dev/mapper directory with the FC WWN name, iSCSI equivalent, or whatever you have specified for the alias parameter in multipath.conf.
