Dell MD3000i issues with dm mp

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings everyone, I have a RHEL 5.3 host attached to two Dell MD3000i storage arrays via iscsi.  I’m having some interesting issues upon bootup in this setup.  Between the two arrays I’m accessing 24 luns so after my iscsi service kicks in I get tons and tons of I/O error messages going across the screen.  This can go on for 15-20 minutes or longer.  It would appear that some I/O is being sent to the passive paths and they are returning errors.  It would seem the scsi layer is doing its thing to scan for partitions and probably causing the I/O that is being seen.  Is there any way to suppress/avoid this scenario?  Also, I thought I would post my multipath.conf file just to have some other eyes have a look at it and make sure I’m not missing something obvious so that is below.  Thanks in advance!
