Hi, I have quick question. I am trying to configure device mapper for my FC array (on my Linux box). I have passed all the arguments from /etc/multipath.conf(like vendor, model etc ..). Discovery seems fine. But, failover is not working. I am seeing the following error. "device-mapper: multipath: Cannot failover device because scsi_dh_rdac was not loaded." Is it required to add vendor id and model id anywhere else to support this device?

I am using the latest kernel 2.6.27.rc6 and got the latest multipath-tools from upstream. I updated /etc/multipath.conf with all the information (vendor, product, hardware_handler, prio etc ...). Note that my device is not part of rdac_dev_list. Discovery worked fine. "multipath -ll" displays all the information. I can see that it is picking up rdac device handler. But I found that for some reason failover/failback is not working. I am seeing following these messages. "device-mapper: multipath: Cannot failover device because scsi_dh_rdac was not loaded." I can see that scsi_dh_rdac driver is already loaded. I did some more investigation. Found that failover works fine if I add vendor, model in rdac_dev_list (in file scsi_dh_rdac.c). My question - is it required to add all the supported vendor and model names in rdac_dev_list? Appreciate your responses.
