I/O error during path failover

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have a system with Qlogic QLA2312 HBAs. System is running RHEL 4u4:

[root@cpn-0 etc]# uname -a
Linux cpn-0.chas1A.ucs2.net 2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 12 23:27:17 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@cpn-0 etc]# rpm -qa | grep device
device-mapper-1.02.07-4.0.RHEL4
device-mapper-multipath-0.4.5-18.1.RHEL4
[root@cpn-0 etc]#

Storage is EMC Cx500. Multipath.conf is at the end of the mail. I have tested the system by running I/O directly to multipath device file, e.g. like this:

dd if=/dev/mpath/dm-0 of=/dev/null count=10000000

Now, when I pull the cable to cause path change, dd usually stops in the middle, and gives error message indicating I/O error. Any suggestions?
