You have an active-passive array (like my EMC Clariion) and these messages are normal even if annoying. It's not much "professional". With Clariion, as far as I know, the only solution is upgrading Flare to ver. 26 that simulates active-active behaviour. -- Domenico Viggiani -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
