[dm-devel] multipath device name

[Ariel Gottlieb]

Erez, 

Add the following to your multipath.conf  file:

 

defaults {

        udev_dir                /dev

        polling_interval        2

        failback                immediate

        no_path_retry           3

}

 

Regards, 

Ariel

Problem solved:

I copied
/usr/share/doc/packages/multipath-tools/multipath.conf.annotated and
uncommented the block with the "red" device. The problem is that I
didn't remove the comments from 'multipaths {' and the '}' at the end of
the block. After uncommenting it, I see /dev/mapper/red.

 

Any idea about the other question that I had on this thread (about slow
and strange fail over)? Any help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Erez
