[dm-devel] fields in "dmsetup status"

[gistolero at gmx.de]

Hi,

I would like to know the meaning of the different "dmsetup status" fields:

# dmsetup status
yellow: 0 314572800 multipath 1 0 0 3 1 E 0 1 0 8:64 A 0 E 0 1 0 8:176 F ...

"yellow" = lun alias
"0 314572800" = device length
"multipath" = target
"8:64 A"  = device 8:64 is acitve
"8:176 F" = device 8:x failed
"E" seems to be a placeholder for path_selector.
Is that right?

It would be very nice if someone could explain all fields. I know that
christophe discribes "dmsetup table" on his homepage, but I couldn't find
this for "status".

Thanks,
Simon
