mpath

[Geofrey Rainey]

So the disks became incorrectly labelled is that what you're saying? I
though "mpath" isn't guaranteed to persist and that /dev/mappper paths
should be used anyway?

I booted lately several RHEL5.1 Bladecenter servers with multipath, the
multipath has been implemented typing mpath during the booting
installation
from CD.
For our disaster recovery, we found that the linux rhel5 system wont
boot up
from replicated SAN LUN using device mapper multipath ... its reporting
kernel panic and cant e2fsck files system to continue ctrl D and type
root
password ...etc
in order to boot the system we remounted in read/write mode and edit
/etc/fstab then removed the mpath dev from boot disk, the system was
able to
boot
