Hi, I have a related question. I have just set up LVM on the LUNS from a HDS-9570 with a qla-2300 driver in failover mode. This results in each LUN being exposed to the operating system twice, once for each controller. However when a controller fails the card transparently maps the requests to the secondary controller so that the original scsi target still works. LVM appears to do the 'right thing for me' in that it recognises that the the two PVs are one (I assume via the UUID) and ignore the second LUN. I'd like to know if this is just good luck, or if it's behaviour I can rely ? thanks On Thursday 04 March 2004 20:30, Joe Thornber wrote: > On Wed, Mar 03, 2004 at 04:03:49PM -0300, Eduardo Dias wrote: > > Dear All, > > > > I would like to know if LVM Linux has (or will) support to multi path links? > > There is a v. old patch kicking around that adds some sort of multipath > support to LVM1.
