Yes, I've added that section, and still I get these: Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: 8:16: reinstated Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: 8:64: reinstated Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: qd: remaining active paths: 2 Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: qd: switch to path group #2 Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: qd: switch to path group #2 Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: dm-0: add map (uevent) Aug 24 20:47:38 node03 multipathd: dm-0: devmap already registered Aug 24 20:47:47 node03 kernel: sd 1:0:1:0: queueing MODE_SELECT command.

Aug 24 20:48:17 node03 multipathd: 8:64: reinstated So it does not work ok :( So far I've tried: 1. defaults with initiators set to "Linux" one path constantly failed 2. AVT with initiators set to "Solaris (with Veritas DMP or other)" multipath flopping constantly - every 20 minutes there is enter in main log about path failing 3. RDAC with initiators set to "Linux" logs filled with messages like these show up in the message, constantly flip/flopping I haven't patch scsi_dh_rdac because I don't know how to add support for "SUN"/"LCSM100_S", and although I could figure it out, I'm not really a fan of compiling the kernel if it is not absolutely necessary. -- | 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
