Hi Christie,
Is it safe to use active/passive multipath with krbd with exclusive lock for 
lio/tgt/scst/tcmu?
Is it safe to use active/active multipath If use suse kernel with 
target_core_rbd?
Thanks.

You are using LIO/TGT with krbd right? 

You cannot or shouldn't do active/active multipathing. If you have the 
lock enabled then it bounces between paths for each IO and will be slow. 
If you do not have it enabled then you can end up with stale IO 
overwriting current data.
