This is what I have on multipath.conf
blacklist {
wwid SSun_VOL0_266DCF4A
wwid SSun_VOL0_5875CF4A
devnode "^(ram|raw|loop|fd|md|dm-|sr|scd|st)[0-9]*"
devnode "^hd[a-z]"
}
defaults {
user_friendly_names yes
}
devices {
device {
vendor "HITACHI"
product "OPEN-V"
path_grouping_policy group_by_node_name
failback immediate
no_path_retry fail
}
device {
vendor "IET"
product "VIRTUAL-DISK"
path_checker tur
path_grouping_policy failover
failback immediate
no_path_retry fail
}
}
As an example this is one LUN. It shoes [features=0] so I'd say it should
fail right way
mpath-dc2-a (360060e8004f240000000f24000000502) dm-15 HITACHI,OPEN-V -SU
[size=26G][features=0][hwhandler=0][rw]
\_ round-robin 0 [prio=4][active]
\_ 5:0:1:0 sdu 65:64 [active][ready]
\_ 5:0:1:16384 sdac 65:192 [active][ready]
\_ 5:0:1:32768 sdas 66:192 [active][ready]
\_ 5:0:1:49152 sdba 67:64 [active][ready]
\_ round-robin 0 [prio=4][enabled]
\_ 3:0:1:0 sdaw 67:0 [active][ready]
\_ 3:0:1:16384 sdbe 67:128 [active][ready]
\_ 3:0:1:32768 sdbi 67:192 [active][ready]
\_ 3:0:1:49152 sdbm 68:0 [active][ready]
It think they fail since I see this messages from LVM:
Apr 14 16:03:05 dc1-x6250-a lvm[15622]: Device failure in
vg_syb_roger-lv_syb_roger_admin
Apr 14 16:03:14 dc1-x6250-a lvm[15622]: Failed to remove faulty devices in
vg_syb_roger-lv_syb_roger_admin
But from some reason LVM cant remove them, any option I should have on
lvm.conf?
BestRegards
