Basically, when a device is found, the filter is walked from left to write and action is taken when the first match happen. IOW, all your scsi disks will be "r"ejected with the following filter, ["r|/dev/sd.*|", "a|/dev/sdgp.*|", "a|/dev/sdgo.*|", "a|/dev/sda.*" ] in effect the later "a"ccepts are useless. > brassow > > -- > dm-devel mailing list > dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Chandra Seetharaman | Be careful what you choose.... - sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx | .......you may get it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
