Hi,

I'm running ~45 machines that boot from SAN/or are connected to our SAN
fabrics on CentOS 4.x/5.x (And about 20 more running RHEL5) without
problems at all. The storage is IBM SVC (2145).

Just make sure multipathd is running on your system, otherwise it will not
recover paths correctly.

Thanks,
Finnur
