Hi! I have StorageTek 2530 storage, which has two controllers. On host side I have LSI LOGIC two SAS port cards. I've connected one cable from LSI port1 to StorageTek ControllerA, and second SAS cable from LSI port2 to StorageTek ControllerB. On storage, I've set up initiators type to Linux. But, I just can't get multipath working. For example: # multipath -ll sdc: checker msg is "readsector0 checker reports path is down" sde: checker msg is "readsector0 checker reports path is down" sdg: checker msg is "readsector0 checker reports path is down" sas-mysql (3600a0b80003abc5c00000b654a916617) dm-1 SUN,LCSM100_S [size=115G][features=0][hwhandler=0][rw] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][active] \_ 1:0:0:1 sdc 8:32 [failed][faulty] \_ 1:0:1:1 sdf 8:80 [active][ready] sas-xen (3600a0b80002fcd18000014544a9166fb) dm-2 SUN,LCSM100_S [size=21G][features=0][hwhandler=0][rw] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][active] \_ 1:0:0:2 sdd 8:48 [active][ready] \_ 1:0:1:2 sdg 8:96 [failed][faulty] quorum (3600a0b80002fcd18000014514a9165b4) dm-0 SUN,LCSM100_S [size=100M][features=0][hwhandler=0][rw] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][active] \_ 1:0:0:0 sdb 8:16 [active][ready] \_ 1:0:1:0 sde 8:64 [failed][faulty] So, all paths on my second controller are failed/faulty.... Here is my multipath.conf: defaults { udev_dir /dev polling_interval 10 selector "round-robin 0" path_grouping_policy multibus getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -s /block/%n" prio_callout /bin/true path_checker readsector0 rr_min_io 100 max_fds 8192 rr_weight priorities failback immediate no_path_retry fail user_friendly_names yes } blacklist { devnode "^(ram|raw|loop|fd|md|dm-|sr|scd|st)[0-9]*" devnode "^hd[a-z]" } multipaths { multipath { wwid 3600a0b80002fcd18000014544a9166fb alias sas-xen path_grouping_policy group_by_prio path_checker tur prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_tpc.static /dev/%n" } multipath { wwid 3600a0b80003abc5c00000b654a916617 alias sas-mysql path_grouping_policy group_by_prio path_checker tur prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_tpc.static /dev/%n" } multipath { wwid 3600a0b80002fcd18000014514a9165b4 alias quorum path_grouping_policy group_by_prio path_checker tur prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_tpc.static /dev/%n" } } I've also tried: multipath { wwid alias path_grouping_policy failover path_checker readsector0 path_selector "round-robin 0" failback immediate no_path_retry queue } for those 3 wwid's... I'm kinda lost... I've found this, but it is for FC storage, and mine is SAS type... http://osdir.com/ml/linux.kernel.device-mapper.devel/2007-02/msg00033.html Thank you... -- | Jakov Sosic | ICQ: 28410271 | PGP: 0x965CAE2D | ================================================================= | start fighting cancer -> http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ | -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
