It's the count if items to parse on the rest of the features line. > 2) Is this "3" next to the features in "multipath -ll" output as expected (even > though we mention "2 pg_init_retries 50" ) in our multipath.conf ?? The format of the features field is: FeatureCount# Feature/param0 Feature/param1 ... Feature/paramN The 3 indicates three features/parameters. The first is "queue_if_no_path" (which is implied by the "no_path_retry 30" in your device block - no_path_retry requires the queue_if_no_path feature be enabled at the device-mapper level). The 2nd and 3rd are the pg_init_retries feature and its parameter. Regards, Bryn. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
