I'm resending my find_multipaths patch, based on the conversation I had here. If nothing else, I'd at least like a discussion about why these shouldn't go in. http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2014-July/msg00029.html Just to clarify. find_multipaths is a configurable option that when set to 'yes' will make multipath only run on devices have more than one path. This means that users can mostly leave the blacklist alone, and they will only get the multipath devices that they want. The only time the blacklist is necessary is when users actually have multiple paths to a device, but still don't want multipath set up on it. It's been around since RHEL6, and it is turned on in the default multipath.conf file in RHEL7. The internal default is "off". Hannes, do you still object to these?
