Hello again.
can you please tell me how to upgrade to multipath-tools-0.4.5-0.20
i found multipath-0.4.5.tar.bz2 on the site
(http://christophe.varoqui.free.fr/multipath-tools/ )
but i guess that multipath-tools-0.4.5-0.20 is after applying some patches
if so can you tell me which ones ?
thanks.

I have no Problem with the failover also with SLES 9 2.6.5-7.244-smp.
But i'm not working with the isci initiator.
My Config:
defaults
{
multipath_tool "/sbin/multipath -v0"
udev_dir /dev
polling_interval 5
default_selector "round-robin 0"
default_getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -s /block/%n"
default_prio_callout "/bin/true"
failback immediate
}
There are newer Multipath tools available:
Im working with: multipath-tools-0.4.5-0.20
(Device Mapper is same)
I recommend to update them first. :)
This one is talking about the same Problem you have.

I don't know if this error is clariion specific.
