Hi All, I noticed the following behaviour with friendly names in the multipath configuration files: /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-mpath0 symlink is created pointing to actual dm device node (i.e. /dev/dm-0), also /dev/disk/by-name/mpath0 symlink pointing to the same dm device node. It doesn't look right to create name/alias based entry in the /dev/disk/by-id/ space. In other words, the actual by-id symlink is NOT created at all! How about creating the actual by-id name in the /dev/disk/by-id/ directory and alias name in /dev/disk/by-name/ directory? If an admin specifies a real by-id name as boot device for booting, he couldn't boot with 'friendly names' ON today. The above solution would fix that. Thanks, Malahal. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
