That is good to know. I will push the patch upstream. BTW, Please be advised that you might see some unknown problems if you use the multipath tools from mainline on your distro releases. The library in distro releases and the tools in mainline may not be totally compatible, which is the cause. I would suggest you to use the tools from your distro itself. The kernel changes for SCSI_DH should work with no changes to the tools (in your distro). IOW, you do not need the latest multipath tools. chandra On Fri, 2008-10-31 at 10:05 -0600, Moger, Babu wrote: > Yes, It is working fine with this patch. Now my online/offline test is running fine.
