Since I see the following entry
at /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7/multipath.conf.defaults
I am assuming I do not need to add it to multipath.conf but I do not know
exaclty. Also my storage is Hitachi openv and the default one has Product
name as "DF.*" as you can see below.
So I am confused in here.
device {
# vendor "HITACHI"
# product "DF.*"
# getuid_callout "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -s /block/%n"
# prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_hds_modular %d"
# features "0"
# hardware_handler "0"
# path_grouping_policy group_by_prio
# failback immediate
# rr_weight uniform
# rr_min_io 1000
# path_checker readsector0
# }
Thanks
Paras.
