I've been wondering about your dev_loss recommendation. What is the rationale for setting dev_loss and fast_io_fail to the same value, which is straight against the general recommendation? And what is the reason for the aggressively low dev_loss value anyway? Device loss and re-discovery is much more complex to handle for both the kernel and multipathd than failure/reinstantiation. You are the only vendor who recommends setting dev_loss less than the default of 600s. Could you share your reasoning please?
