I'll be posting a patchset for reimplementing multipath as a stand-alone driver shortly; that'll give us a good starting point on how we want multipath to evolve. Who knows; we might even manage to move multipath out of device-mapper altogether. That would make Mike very happy, and I wouldn't mind, either :-) Cheers, Hannes -- Dr. Hannes Reinecke Teamlead Storage & Networking hare@xxxxxxx +49 911 74053 688 SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: F.
