The manpage for SLES10 SP2 multipath.conf mentions this: " path_checker The default method used to determine the paths’ state. Possible values are directio Read the first sector with direct I/O. .... snip .. readsector0 (Deprecated) Read the first sector of the device. Default value is directio. Using readsector0 as path_checker is deprecated as it’s reported to not work correctly on certain devices. " So you should be able to replace 'readsector0' with 'directio' in your multipath.conf file. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
