Hello, I've setup multipath with multipath-tools and I guess everything is OK there. However, I can't get lvm to recognize the multipath'ed devices: # dmsetup ls 3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000p1 (253, 4) system-lv03 (253, 2) system-lv01 (253, 1) system-lv00 (253, 0) dm-3p2 (253, 7) dm-3p1 (253, 6) cabtagdb01:~ # fdisk -l /dev/dm-3 Disk /dev/dm-3: 53.6 GB, 53687091200 bytes 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 51200 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/dm-3p1 1 1 1008 83 Linux /dev/dm-3p2 2 51200 52427776 8e Linux LVM cabtagdb01:~ # fdisk -l /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000 Disk /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000: 53.6 GB, 53687091200 bytes 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 51200 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000p1 1 1 1008 83 Linux /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000p2 2 51200 52427776 8e Linux LVM # pvcreate /dev/dm-3p2 Device /dev/dm-3p2 not found. # pvcreate /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000p2 Device /dev/mapper/3600508b40010130d00006000011c0000p2 not found. Does anyone have any guess on what the problem might be? I seem to be one-step from getting this solved and I am going through these hassles.
