gfs with multipath

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, It's possible to do a multipath device with devices that are part of a already created gfs filesystem without losing data? If the question it's not clear here is a detailed explanation:

I have created a gfs filesystem (the usual procedure) that has two paths to the same device (QLogic hba connected to an IBM SAN) Example: /dev/sdb is the same as /dev/sdc and my PV was created with /dev/sdc. Now I would like to create a multipath device with this devices (/dev/sdb and /dev/sdc) but I don't want to lose my data. Is that possible?
