Package: multipath-tools
Version: 0.4.8+git0.761c66f-8
Severity: normal
Hi
I had some problems with an HP EVA 3k Storage Array ( HSV100 Controller ) and
multipath...
Modprobing the HBA module (qla2xxx) resulted in detecting the SAN-Disks as
/dev/sdX , but the device-mapper did not show any new devices.
Looking at /var/log/syslog and dmesg I found multiple entries like this:
device-mapper: table: 253:3: multipath: unknown hardware handler type
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
device-mapper: table: 253:3: multipath: unknown hardware handler type
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
device-mapper: table: 253:3: multipath: unknown hardware handler type
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
device-mapper: table: 253:3: multipath: unknown hardware handler type
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
Looking at multipathd:
> multipathd -k"show config" | grep hardware_handler | grep hp
hardware_handler "1 hp-sw"
hardware_handler "1 hp-sw"
After some internet searching i found out that between 2.6.26 ( lenny ) and
2.6.32 the hardware handler kernel modules were transferred from drivers/md to
drivers/scsi/device_handler.
In the source of the new mopdule drivers/scsi/device_handler/scsi_dh_hp_sw.c
there's the name hp_sw ...
Apparently the name of my handler changed from hp-sw to hp_sw.
After adding a modified device-Section in my /etc/multipath.conf ( see below )
and a restart of multipathd everything works fine.
The problem is solved for me, but i recommend correcting the handler-names in
the default config in libmultipath from
..hwhandler = "1 hp-sw"
to
..hwhandler = "1 hp_sw"
thanks, phil
