Red Hat may have a version of the udev RPM for update 2 with this change. Setting up the Symmetrix device entry in /etc/multipath.conf to also use this option "-ppre-spc3-83" will cause dm multipath to generate mapped device names for Symmetrix logical units which do not have the vendor/model prefix. Both of these changes are in SuSE SLES 9 SP3 and it works as stated above. -- dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
