After configuring multipath access to a LU, I partitioned it with fdisk.
fdisk complained about failing to re-read the partition table,
blockdev --rereadpt failed as well.

No new devices were created for the new partitions. I guess
there are udev rules to do that, are there?

How do I get the partition to become available, what should be the
partitions device names in /dev?

man kpartx

"This tool, derived from util-linux' partx, reads partition tables on
specified device and create device maps over partitions segments
detected. It is called from hotplug upon device maps creation and
deletion."

More info in
www.linuxsymposium.org/2005/linuxsymposium_procv1.pdf
search kpartx, or see page 166 ( "p158" )
