I have a single port qla2342 initiator connected to a MSA-1000 through a Switch. The two ports of the MSA 1000 are connected to the switch exposing 2 paths to the target LUNs. When I display the topology using multipath -ll i get the output as follows: 3600805................ [size=9GB][features=1 queue_if_no_path][hwhandler=0] \_round-robin 0 [prio=1][active] \_ 17:0:0:3 sda 8:0 [failed][faulty] \_ 17:0:1:3 sdi 8:128[active][ready] 3600805................ .............................. .............................. Is it normal for a MSA1000 target to have a "faulty" and a "ready" path. If yes, what does "faulty" signify ? Under what condition does the faulty path become ready? Thanks in advance.
