Configuring multipathing on RHEL 4 system with Emulex drivers

[James Marcinek]

Herta,

Thanks for responding. I found the RDAC drivers and recompiled the kernel. It looks like it's working now.

Thanks,

James

Hi James,

IBM tends to be a bit slow when it comes to updating its drivers.

Have you looked at the device-mapper package as a possible alternative?

Kind regards,

Herta
