Hmm, can't think of anything specific really, they work fine if you
configure multipath.conf correctly. You were thinking of example
device sections for my arrays to put in /usr/share/doc maybe? I'll
include them below:
# Works for EMC AX100 and CX200 (probably all CLARiiON arrays)
device { vendor "DGC " product "*" hardware_handler "1 emc" path_grouping_policy group_by_prio prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_emc /dev/%n" path_checker emc_clariion failback immediate no_path_retry queue
}
# Works for the Sun StorageTek 6140 (rebranded Engenio 3994).
# Probably other arrays from LSI Logic as well after adjusting
# vendor/product. Note that it needs AVT mode which can be
# selected on the 6140 by using OS type AIX_FO. No hardware
# handler exists at the time of writing for RDAC mode yet
# (OS type Linux on the 6140).
device { vendor "SUN " product "CSM200_R " path_grouping_policy group_by_serial prio_callout "/sbin/mpath_prio_tpc /dev/%n" path_checker tur failback immediate no_path_retry queue
}
If there's anything else you'd like to know just ask. :-)
