Hi,Martin
Thanks for your reply.
The command "multipathd list paths format %N %R %n %r" or "lsscsi -t" shows all the paths.
The new command "multipath -k" removes the path of information with the same host wwn and
target wwn, only display the different physical path which is between a server and the
storage device in storage networking. We think this command will make it easier to observe
physical path information.

Best regards.
