Hi. Can someone spare a little time to help me understand the multipath utility and daemon a little better? I read myself through the available documentation. The refbook says that it's multipath who's creating maps, and multipathd responsible for path checking. Running multipath (at least the version 0.4.7 I've got here), this actually doesn't seem to be the case. Unless I'm totally mistaken, multipathd actually does create DM maps as paths are discovered. And not just fork/exec the utility as many sources (most notably the man page) state. No, I'm not asking for general advice on how old documentation relates to new code. :) My question here would be rather: Everywhere I've been looking at until now there's seems to be a multipath %M:%m being run from udev. In addition to the running daemon. Is this redundant or does the run from udevd still add some major value?
