Things like multipath -l multipathd show maps multipathd show paths are supported. There is no support for the individual "show map" and "show path" commands. Those only work on dm devices. There is also no json formatting option for the foreign devices, but that could be added. And probably will need to be, since people like RHEV really want to use the library interface to multipathd with json formatted output. Although if there are no dm multipath devices, there is no point to running multipathd, so it might be worthwhile thinking about a library interface to getting the information directly, instead of through multipathd. That's a bigger rewrite. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
