Hi
I have been strugling with an HP MSA1000 for a few weeks now.
I am using the old active/passive firmware.
Here is the device section of my multipath.conf :

devices {
	device {
		vendor 		"COMPAQ"

		product		"MSA1000"
		hardware_handler	"1 hp_sw"
		path_grouping_policy	group_by_prio
		path_checker	hp_sw
 			 		
 	}
}


I am under RHEL5.2 and this is the rpm package of dm-multipath 0.4.7-16.el5.
Here is my /var/log/messages when i start multipathd daemon :
Aug 12 13:48:33 cluster3 kernel: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target

If anyone can help, thanks in advance.
