Can anybody tell me if my multipath o/p is fine?
I have a active/active setup and when I unplug the FC SAN cable on one of
the ports of my HBA my host is being un responsive and need to reboot it.
When I do
multipath -ll
I can see:
[root at cvprd2 etc]# multipath -ll
mpath2 (360060e8004770d000000770d0000018c) dm-1 HITACHI,OPEN-V*10

But when I do "multipath -v2" i donot see anything..
[root at cvprd2 etc]# multipath -v2
[root at cvprd2 etc]#

My multipath.conf is as below:
[root at cvprd1 etc]# more multipath.conf
# This is a basic configuration file with some examples, for device mapper
# multipath.
# For a complete list of the default configuration values, see
# /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7/multipath.conf.defaults
# For a list of configuration options with descriptions, see
# /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7/multipath.conf.annotated
# Blacklist all devices by default. Remove this to enable multipathing
# on the default devices.
blacklist {
devnode "^sda"
}
## Use user friendly names, instead of using WWIDs as names.
defaults {
user_friendly_names yes
polling_interval 5
no_path_retry 3
failover immediate
path_grouping_policy multibus
rr_weight priorities
path_checker readsector0
}
devices {
device {
vendor "HITACHI"
product "OPEN-V"
path_grouping_policy multibus
path_checker readsector0
getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -p0x80 -s
/block/%n"
}
}
[root at cvprd1 etc]#
