It seems that checkerloop isn't just checking the your multipathed devices.
It's checking all your devices. Wouldn't it be more sensible to find out which
devices make up part of a multipathed device, and only check those?
Currently, when I start up multipathd, I getting this printed out:
Unknown switch: (null)
multipath v0.4.4 (16/04, 2005)
Usage: /sbin/multipath [-v level] [-d] [-l] [-S]
[-p failover|multibus|group_by_serial|group_by_prio]
[device]
-v level verbosty level
0 no output
1 print created devmap names only
2 default verbosity
3 print debug information
-d dry run, do not create or update devmaps
-l list the current multipath topology
-F flush all multipath device maps
-p policy force all maps to specified policy :
failover 1 path per priority group
multibus all paths in 1 priority group
group_by_serial 1 priority group per serial
group_by_prio 1 priority group per priority lvl
group_by_node_name 1 priority group per target node
device limit scope to the device's multipath
(udev-style $DEVNAME reference, eg /dev/sdb
or major:minor or a device map name)
because checkerloop is trying to check the status of /dev/hda, which is not
multipathed.
