I'm trying to add a new SAN LUN to a system, create a multipath mdadm

All goes well, up to partitioning the md device:
# fdisk /dev/md12
wait!
you cannot partition an md device.
if you need you have to use an mdp device,
but do you?
if you just want to create a single filesystem, as you do below, use the
md device directly.
